The mystery is close to being solved. Jonathan Kuminga has definitively closed his chapter with Golden State Warriors, and the San Francisco franchise is clear on the destination of the young player. After vehemently rejecting the best offer the Suns could present, Sacramento Kings are on the verge of securing his services, also unlocking the situation of Russell Westbrook.

They are not willing to be just another team and miss out on the competitive opportunities that a player like Sabonis brings. The management of Sacramento Kings aims to initiate a revolution by signing Jonathan Kuminga as a fundamental pillar of a project in which Lavine will continue as the third sword. They are in advanced negotiations for a sign&trade deal, a solution that the Warriors view favorably.

This maneuver would have collateral effects on other players. The clearest impact would be DeRozan leaving Sacramento Kings, who would then sign Russell Westbrook as a significant element in their competitive project. The veteran point guard sees the prospect of joining the Californian team with good eyes, but only if Jonathan Kuminga also arrives, considering that he brings a quality leap to the team. In essence, very aggressive moves from a Kings team with tasks well advanced.
