Jonathan Kuminga Expected to Be Traded by Warriors After January 15th Deadline

Jonathan Kuminga is widely anticipated to be traded by the Golden State Warriors after January 15th, the date he becomes eligible, as both the player and the team are reportedly ready to part ways. The Warriors structured his two-year, $45.6 million contract, with a team option in the second year, to be highly tradable. Kuminga, who averaged 15.3 points per game last season but shot 30.5% from three-point range, has faced friction with coach Steve Kerr due to his style of play not naturally fitting Kerr's system. Additionally, his presence at the four position creates an uncomfortable fit alongside players like Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green. The Warriors are expected to move him by the trade deadline.
