The stalemate between the Golden State Warriors and Jonathan Kuminga doesn't seem to be subsiding any time soon, and while the former lottery pick has until Oct. 1 to either sign a $7.9 million qualifying offer from Golden State or agree to a new extension, surely both sides would like to get something done well before then.

“The Warriors do not want to trade their future piece. Why would they? In just 24 minutes per game, Kuminga has averaged over 15 PPG in the past two seasons. He is a very productive big man for the Warriors team and so long Steph Curry is present, the Warriors are capable of winning an NBA title,” he wrote.

The Golden State Warriors find themselves in a strange situation with youngster Jonathan Kuminga. There have been parts throughout Kuminga’s career where he looks to be an above-average player, but unfortunately, Steve Kerr hasn't given him all of the leeway to be that player.
