Today, ESPN Warriors Anthony Slater wrote an article reporting on the latest progress in the Kumingga incident.
Kuminga's agent Aaron Turner told ESPN on the podcast The Hoop Collective that unless the Golden State Warriors raise their current offer, Kuuminga is about to accept a $7.9 million qualification offer.
agent said Kumingga was not opposed to returning to the Warriors, but Kumingga would have to suppress his personal ambitions, and this sacrifice should be reflected in contract negotiations.
"I don't think the problem is whether or not I want to stay with the Warriors," Turner said. "I've represented all the players on all the different teams, and the Warriors are a top-notch team. I mean, everything is great there, from the facilities to the way they treat the players, it's amazing. But what else is giving him is the opportunity to start the game, finish the game, make it clear. But the Warriors can't guarantee that he starts any game. He might, but we don't know. Finish the game every night, who knows? It depends on whether Steve (Kehl) has the combination he likes and works well. Maybe. He will stick with it, maybe not. You will have to reduce the ball holding, you will have to avoid developing some parts of your game, or want to focus on certain parts, especially any kind of mid-range jump shot, which is a technique JK (Kuminga) is indeed practicing. But in the Warriors' offensive system and the role he plays, that won't be an important scoring method he can take on a regular basis."
Kuminga returns to the Warriors' likely to be a substitute, behind, Butler, Dream Chasing and Horford.
So, Turner said that throughout the process, the message he passed to the Warriors was: If they wanted Cuming to join the gang, they had to convince him on the contract (not on the basketball environment).
