Trade & FA 2025-26: Free Agency Starts 5pm CST/6pm EST

[Chicagojk]

General manager Mike Dunleavy and his front office have spent the past several weeks canvassing the market for Kuminga. The Sacramento Kings and Dallas Mavericks are among the teams that have shown interest in Kuminga as an intriguing part of their rebuild, league sources said, but several other teams are also in the mix because of his flexible contract structure. If the right star player is made available, the Warriors would be willing to move multiple first-round draft picks, team sources said, though they are more protective of their first rounders in 2028 and beyond than their 2026 pick.

All this hassle just for keeping as asset and hoping to get value. At the end, they will be lucky to get any worthwile asset.  

I will be interested to see what happens with Kuminga.   It is a bad sign that he has not been able to find a role in that Warriors team.  It should be easy.   I understand he wants a bigger role, but there should have been an opp to fill a support role while also looking for a bigger role down the road.   He is a guy if you watch the highlights, he looks like someone you would invest in.   He also had a few good games against the mavs.   The lack of interest is telling.    His next stop is going to be interesting to see if anything worthwhile is there.
