Jonathan Kuminga reached a $48 million, two-year deal with the Golden State Warriors.
The deal comes after Kuminga skipped Media Day due to ongoing contract negotiations. He passed up a $78 million, three-year deal to maintain his right to be a free agent next year.
During the 2024-2025 season, Kuminga made 47 regular-season appearances, averaging 15.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 2.2 assists.
Stephen Curry spoke about this ongoing negotiation, saying, “When he’s here, ready to work, we expect him to be locked in on doing what he needs to do to help us win.”
