Today, the Warriors won the game with the Kings very easily, the Kings are currently facing the Warriors when they are difficult to parry, because the ability of the two teams is not at the same level at all, the Warriors have 8 players scoring double-doubles today, playing an extreme passing performance, and the overall combat power of the Warriors is already the level of a championship team.
What's more, the Warriors welcomed in the return of a major player today, he is Kuminga, Kuminga has been very good this season, and he thought that today was his first game back and maybe his form needs to slowly recover. But what was surprising was that he had a very good performance in the first game alone, scoring 18 points on 7-of-10 shooting in the game. And he only played 20 minutes in the whole game. Kuminga's return takes the Warriors one step further.
But for the Warriors management, they will also have some worries, because Kuminga's contract will expire completely this offseason, and they need to discuss how to sign a suitable contract with Kuminga. The Warriors have signed a three-year contract with Moody, and it is very easy to sign a contract with Moody's because Moody's asking price is not high, and strictly speaking, the contract that the Warriors signed with Moody is a great value contract, and they have earned it. But Kuminga is asking the Warriors for a max contract, which is why the Warriors have been hesitant.
At the moment, it will be difficult for the Warriors to offer Kuminga a contract with a maximum salary, because Butler's current annual salary is as high as more than 60 million. The team is under hefty luxury tax pressure, and there is some overlap between Kuminga's style of play with Butler. Perhaps Kuminga will need to lower his salary requirements himself so that he can stay with the Warriors. Otherwise, the Warriors might have given up on Kuminga. The Warriors are facing a lot of contract extensions this summer, not just Kuminga, but also Looney and Payton Jr., so for Dunleavy, the task this offseason is obviously very difficult. I don't know if the fans think Kuminga should stay or not?
