The Jonathan Kuminga saga has reach a temporary resolution as the soon-to-be 23-year-old has agreed to a two-year, $48.5 million contract with the Golden State Warriors. However, questions linger:

1. Will Kuminga still be traded?

The prevailing sentiment suggests yes. Outside of owner Joe Lacob, the Warriors seem uncommitted to Kuminga, who appears eager to leave. This situation is akin to a marriage with an uncertain future, and if beneficial trade options arise, likely, the Warriors will make a move.

2. What will Kuminga’s role be?

This is intriguing. The Warriors may have to decide whether to utilize Kuminga in ways that enhance team performance or elevate his trade value. It’s doubtful he will be a starter, despite his aspirations. With players such as Al Horford and Steph Curry taking lead roles, finding a spot for Kuminga may be challenging.

3. How much can Kuminga help the Warriors?

A lot. Despite doubts, Kuminga stands as the only player on the team who excels as an athletic shot creator. Given the Warriors’ championship ambitions, his contributions could be pivotal.
