NBA rumors: Jonathan Kuminga’s desired salary that Warriors don’t want to pay
ClutchPointsThursday, July 17, 2025 at 4:03:19 PM
Jonathan Kuminga, the former Golden State Warriors forward, is still unsigned two weeks into NBA free agency despite being one of the biggest names left on the market. The holdup? He’s reportedly asking for a salary the Warriors aren’t willing to match, leaving him in limbo—getting plenty of media buzz but no concrete offers. A return to Golden State isn’t off the table, but the money gap is keeping things stuck for now.
Editor’s Note: Kuminga’s situation highlights the tricky balancing act of young talent seeking big paydays versus teams cautious about overpaying. For Warriors fans, it’s a frustrating stalemate—losing a promising player over dollars could hurt their roster, but overspending might strap them financially. For the league, it’s another example of how free agency isn’t always a quick or easy process, even for rising stars.
