According to ESPN's Anthony Slater, who was speaking via ESPN 1320 Sacramento, Kuminga has already held talks with the Kings front office and has been interested in the role on offer, along with the overall pitch. Slater also noted that Kuminga is more focused on the on-court role he will receive, rather than the monetary value of his next deal.

The Golden State Warriors have offered Jonathan Kuminga a two-year, $40 million deal, according to NBA insider Marc Stein of The Stein Line. Kuminga, a restricted free agent, is said to be seeking a salary in the $30 million range annually.

The Athletic polled 16 people who work in NBA front offices about what Kuminga's new deal should look like. One executive said the forward should get a five-year, $125 million dollar deal. He used Jaden McDaniels' five-year, $131 million deal as a barometer to assess Kuminga's value.
