The Washington Wizards entered the mix in the last 24 hours, and the idea of Kuminga as a possible fit in Washington’s rebuild has gained real momentum, according to league sources. The Miami Heat, Chicago Bulls, Milwaukee Bucks and Brooklyn Nets have also registered varying levels of interest, league sources said.

Here’s the latest on Jonathan Kuminga’s restricted free agency. The Kings floated an offer. The Wizards have generated some notable interest. A return to the Warriors is still on the table. It remains unresolved after four days.

There’s nothing near the finish line on the Jonathan Kuminga front as the third night of free agency wraps, per sources. Conversations ongoing with Warriors and several teams on periphery. Warriors also waiting on Al Horford decision. – 12:11 AM

I’ll tell you this, Sacramento Kings GM Scott Perry isn’t going to be pushed around.
He’s negotiated bigger deals in the past (see his New York Knicks work). And he’s putting pressure on the Warriors, who are in a tough spot with Kuminga. – 12:01 AM

Side note:
Disregard anything you are seeing about Keegan Murray being part of a Kuminga deal.
Sacramento is going to be on the hook for whatever contract Kuminga signs. Why in the world would they give the Warriors a core piece for the right to pay Kuminga?
Silly talk. – 11:14 PM

With regard to other stuff out there, Heat has not been pursuing trade for DeRozan to this point…. Kuminga would love a Heat pursuit but Miami has declined to pursue to this point. – 12:22 PM

More on this storyline
An eventual compromise and return to the Warriors also remains very much on the table, league sources said, considering the market dynamics at play. The two sides have talked about a sit-down in Las Vegas between Kuminga, Turner, general manager Mike Dunleavy and head coach Steve Kerr to discuss a possible path forward, if his situation remains unresolved in a week. -via New York Times / July 3, 2025
The fourth day of Jonathan Kuminga’s restricted free agency will end without resolution, but there’s been increasing movement and conversation regarding one of the most intriguing names remaining on the market. The Golden State Warriors, according to league sources, have been searching for a promising young player plus a first-round pick in return for Kuminga, should they ultimately choose to part with him in a sign-and-trade scenario. -via New York Times / July 3, 2025
They’ve drawn inbound calls in recent days, most notably from the Sacramento Kings, who floated an offer of Devin Carter, Dario Šarić and two second-round picks, league sources said. The Warriors have so far balked at what they felt was a buy-low attempt, league sources said. -via New York Times / July 3, 2025
