Sacramento Kings, Golden State Warriors in trade talks for Jonathan Kuminga amid ongoing contract standoff
There is still no end in sight to the
Jonathan Kuminga
drama. However, he is now receiving some intriguing offers from the Golden State Warriors and the Sacramento Kings. Devin Carter, Dario Saric, and second-round choices were the initial reported offer from the Sacramento Kings, but it was not going to be enough.
According to reports, Sacramento Kings now want the player for Malik Monk and a first-round pick.
Sacramento Kings reportedly push for
Jonathan Kuminga
with new trade offer
The initial offers for a Jonathan Kuminga sign-and-trade have not impressed the
Golden State Warriors
. However, the most fascinating offer so far has reportedly been made. The Sacramento Kings, on the other hand, are looking to add some young players to their squad.
Now, he is the target of their attention. By giving the
NBA
player a big role and the opportunity to thrive in ways the Golden State Warriors haven't been able to, they think they can maximize his potential.
Hence, the Sacramento Kings have made a fresh offer for Jonathan Kuminga's trade, according to Sam Amick of The Athletic. He recently said:
'The Kings have offered Malik Monk and a lottery-protected 2030 first-round pick to the Warriors for Jonathan Kuminga. Unlike the Suns' four-year, $90 million proposal, Sacramento is only offering Kuminga a three-year contract.'
He continued:
'As for the Kings, which last spoke with the Warriors earlier this week, team sources say they've offered a three-year, $63 million deal for Kuminga in a proposal that would send veteran guard Malik Monk and their 2030 first-round pick (lottery protected) to the Warriors…'

He then concluded:
'If that pick didn't convey, then the Warriors would get the least favorable of the Kings or San Antonio's first-round pick in 2031. Those protections have been the primary sticking point, team sources said, as the Warriors have insisted that the first-rounder be unprotected. Thus, the stalemate…'
This is a substantial offer. When the
Sacramento Kings
first tried to trade for Jonathan Kuminga, they offered a far lesser package. The Golden State Warriors might be interested in this one.

'Basically, f*ck them kids': George Kittle drops shocking comment about young players and slams NFL rule change on podcast
'Basically, f*ck them kids': George Kittle drops shocking comment about young players and slams NFL rule change on podcast (Image Via Google) George Kittle, tight end for the San Francisco 49ers, has been in the spotlight for two major reasons lately. First, George Kittle joked that he was going to ruin the aspirations of children who dream about the position he plays and in the second instance, he laughed out loud about the rules against using smelling salts. Both comments were made during the podcast hosted by former cornerback Richard Sherman, which was recorded in early August of 2025. George Kittle, starting his ninth NFL season, has indicated that he has not declined yet. And notably, although he is 31, he specifically stated he could still play at or above that level-at 31. George Kittle wants to stop young players from taking his spot During an episode of The Richard Sherman Podcast, released on August 5, 2025, George Kittle said, 'There are hundreds of thousands of kids who want to be the starting tight end for the 49ers. It's my job to ruin all of their dreams.' George Kittle laughed as he spoke but made it clear he was serious about staying in the NFL. He even added, 'Basically, f*** them kids,' before quickly apologizing for his words: 'Excuse my language, everybody.' The podcast was filmed in Santa Clara, California, where the San Francisco 49ers are holding their training camp. His comments show just how much he still loves playing and competing at the highest level. Also Read: 'I Would Go To Jail For A Year': George Kittle Makes Wild Super Bowl Claim That Leaves Fans Debating His Loyalty George Kittle reacts to the NFL's smelling salt ban Just days before the podcast, the NFL sent a memo on August 2, 2025, telling teams they can no longer give players smelling salts or ammonia inhalants. This rule was made after the FDA warned that such products can hide signs of concussions. George Kittle was clearly upset by this and joked, 'I've been distraught all day. I considered retirement.' He then asked for help finding a replacement method: 'Somebody help me out. Come up with a good idea.' On August 6, the NFL Players Association said players can still bring their own salts, teams just can't supply them anymore. George Kittle, who uses them before every drive, will now have to adjust.
