As a restricted free agent, Jonathan Kuminga has three options: re-sign with Golden State on a new deal, play next season with the Warriors on a qualifying offer worth $7.9 million and enter unrestricted free agency next offseason or sign an offer sheet with a rival team.

If Kuminga signs an offer sheet with a rival team, the Warriors can either match the offer sheet or let the talented swingman leave and work on a sign-and-trade deal.

“We’re trying to be responsible. With the aprons and hard caps and all of that, you can’t just throw money around. We still love Jonathan. We’re hopeful we can figure out a way to strike a balance that works for him and for us. But we’re not going to compromise our roster-building ability now, or in the future. We have to be responsible in the way we build our team,” a Warriors front office executive told NBA reporter Keith Smith of Spotrac.

Kuminga averaged 15.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists for the Warriors last season in 47 games. He shot 45.4% from the field, 30.5% from beyond the arc and 66.8% from the free-throw line.

Kuminga has career averages of 12.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.8 assists in the NBA. He was the seventh overall pick in the 2021 draft.

Multiple sources told Hoops Wire that Kuminga doesn’t want to play for the Warriors anymore.
