Warriors Projected to Land Nets’ Sharpshooter in Offseason Trade Involving Jonathan Kuminga

Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga

This summer is a crucial one for the Golden State Warriors as they try to retool their roster into a championship contender once again.

Of course, the Warriors looked like a title threat in the second half of the season after acquiring Jimmy Butler at the trade deadline but they were unable to make it out of the second round of the playoffs after Stephen Curry suffered an injury.

Now the Warriors will look to build around their aging trio of Curry, Butler and Draymond Green this offseason to build a title contending roster.

One key decision the Warriors must make this summer is whether they want to bring back their young forward Jonathan Kuminga who is a restricted free agent.

Head coach Steve Kerr has said that he does not like the fit of Kuminga in the lineup next to Golden State’s star trio, which was the reason that he benched him to begin the playoffs.

Because of this, Kuminga’s future in Golden State is now in question and ClutchPoints’ Jedd Pagaduan recently created a mock trade that would send him to the Brooklyn Nets.

In the trade, Pagaduan has the Warriors sending Kuminga and a 2028 first-round pick to Brooklyn for Cameron Johnson.

“Johnson is one of the best shooters in the league,” Pagaduan wrote. “This past season, he shot 39 percent from deep on 7.2 attempts per game despite being the player to command the most defensive attention for the Brooklyn Nets. He also flashed a more advanced off-the-bounce game, which should then help him attack aggressive closeouts in the Warriors’ system.”

Johnson would fit well in Golden State as he would give the Warriors another much-needed three-point sharpshooter in their lineup next to Curry.

The 29-year-old forward has also improved other parts of his game, especially on the defensive side and he brings more of what the Warriors are looking for to their lineup rather than Kuminga, who would finally get a chance to have the ball in his hands at a large margin in Brooklyn.
