Jonathan Kuminga Demands Trade, Warriors Mock Up Deals

Jonathan Kuminga officially demanded a trade on Jan. 15 after a long restricted free agency pause, and he "is now eligible to be traded," per reporting. Golden State appears ready to deal if the price is right, even saying it "would be willing to move multiple first-round draft picks." The article lays out three practical packages that match Kuminga to teams chasing scoring, size, or a cheaper young upside while showing how his market value has slipped. Merlin sees a young player and a veteran core at a crossroads. The Warriors can convert a stalled experiment into real assets, but offers will reflect Kuminga’s uneven production and contract. Expect quick calls, cautious bids, and a trade that rewards patience more than promise.
