Jonathan Kuminga is one of the most promising names on the Golden State Warriors roster. However, the player's future with the Bay franchise has never been entirely clear, with a peculiar relationship with coach Steve Kerr, who at one point lost confidence in the young NBA forward.
In fact, his renewal with the Warriors is up in the air. If an agreement is not reached before October 31st, Kuminga will become a restricted free agent next summer. Furthermore, his recent statements have not helped clarify his future.
"The truth is I haven't delved much into the matter," Jonathan Kuminga begins. "I don't want to stray from the path. I'm focused on how I can be great? How can I contribute? The better you play, the more you do things, everything will unfold on its own. So, I'm not worried about those things because I know who I am, I know myself."
A threat of departure from the Warriors?
"Everyone has their moment when God opens doors. My door hasn't been opened yet. At some point, it will open. Obviously, soon or at any time, I know they will be open. If you look at what others are achieving or doing or having, it will hold you back. So, I'm not trying to slow down. I'm trying to keep doing what I always do," adds Jonathan Kuminga, whose statement about the doors seems to be directed at the Warriors, suggesting that if he can leave, he will.
