Jonathan Kuminga’s contract standoff is heating up as the Warriors’ rising star eyes a big payday — but his options are narrowing fast. Rumors swirl about potential sign-and-trades with the Lakers and Kings, though both teams face salary cap hurdles. The Lakers are exploring a deal with the Hawks, but Atlanta isn’t eager to absorb the financial hit. The Kings? They’re still in the mix, offering only a veteran minimum — way below Kuminga’s asking price. With no team likely to meet the Hawks’ demands for a sign-and-trade, Kuminga may have to settle for a one-year deal near the mid-level exception. Either way, landing with a rival like the Lakers or Kings would be a seismic shift — especially since he was drafted by the Warriors. And let’s be real: wherever he ends up, he’ll be itching to take on his former team.
