Jonathan Kuminga may not get what he wants from the Golden State Warriors, but where does that leave him?

According to Marc Stein, via Fullcourtpass, the Warriors have made an offer to Kuminga for a new contract, but it’s not the kind that the star player desired.

Apparently, the Warriors’ best offer to Kuminga has “topped out” at two years and $40 million.

Warriors fans remember that Kuminga wants something closer to three years at $30 million per season, so this is far from what he hoped for.

Because of this offer, Kuminga and his management are in a tough spot.

They can either accept this deal or try to make a new one, preferably a sign-and-trade that would ship him off to another team.

The Sacramento Kings have been looking at Kuminga, but it sounds like the Warriors are hesitant to work with them because Golden State wants a first-round pick and young talent, and they aren’t willing to accept bad contracts on top of that.

However, the Warriors cannot drag their heels with the Kuminga situation because it has brought their front office to a screeching halt.

They have been trying to sign other talent, such as Al Horford and De’Anthony Melton, but the complications with Kuminga have slowed that down.

In other words, they cannot move forward until they know what is going on with Kuminga.

Perhaps Kuminga is able to sweeten the pot just a little bit, getting a new contract with Golden State that isn’t ideal but good enough for now.

Or maybe he can convince the team to create the sign-and-trade that sends him to Sacramento.

But, right now, things feel stuck, and they have been for some time.
