\"It<\/p>\n

In the latest Stein Line, Jake Fischer revealed some more details about the Jonathan Kuminga and Golden State Warriors contract mess. It wasn\u2019t related to the Jazz directly, but it will in a roundabout way \u2026 eventually.<\/p>\n

The line that stands out regarding Kuminga is this one:<\/p>\n

\n

The Warriors, furthermore, are known for their penchant to go big-game hunting, starting with their original pursuit of Durant \u2026 and carrying through to their February acquisition of Butler.<\/p>\n

That said …
\nEven if the Warriors had Kuminga on their books making a tradeable salary north of $20 million, it would still be very challenging for Golden State to assemble a trade offer palatable to the Lakers that could match James\u2019 $52.6 million salary without gutting their roster.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

We know that the Warriors had a ton of interest in Lauri Markkanen last summer, but nothing came of it. It\u2019s clear that the Kuminga situation is likely going to fizzle out, and they\u2019ll eventually figure out some sort of contract agreement.<\/p>\n

The Warriors apparently have interest in Trey Murphy III as well.. Surprise, surprise, the Warriors want to bring on a high-level player and want to give their disappointing player in the trade. Unsurprisingly, the Pelicans have stated they aren\u2019t interested.<\/p>\n

\n

Sources say that the Warriors have a strong affinity for Murphy and have
\nmade outreach to New Orleans as recently as this summer. Yet sources say
\nthat the Pelicans, to be clear, have batted away calls for the 25-year-old,
\nvaluing him highly. The two-way forward will be playing on a contract in
\n2025-26 \u2014 at precisely $25 million \u2014 as desirable as his talent.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

With Kuminga potentially on the books and being turned down by teams like the Pelicans, they might look at making a move for Markkanen.<\/p>\n

But it will be up to Utah if they make a move.<\/p>\n

But that\u2019s not the only team that is likely to show interest in Markkanen, Fischer also mentions that the Spurs are also interested in Trey Murphy III. Just like the Warriors, we also know that the Spurs had interest in Lauri Markkanen last summer.<\/p>\n

Both of these teams are likely to strike out on Murphy, and with very little in terms of players available in free agency, Markkanen becomes the endgame for a team looking to make a trade.<\/p>\n

Again, this all comes down to Utah, and if they want to make any sort of move at all, but there is no question they\u2019re going to receive calls. Considering the Jazz have made it clear they want to keep their top-8 pick next year, they\u2019re walking a tight rope with Markkanen on the team. What if Ace Bailey is really good right away? What if the Jazz get some surprise, high-level play from their young core? It\u2019s going to get interesting real quick next season.<\/p>\n
