On July 20, the NBA entered the offseason. Since the signing market opened on July 1, the Warriors are the only team that has no action. According to reports from many reporters, everything is because Kuminga's contract problem has not been resolved yet. The Warriors cannot even offer any contracts with a minimum salary of veterans.

After the free agent market opened this year, the Warriors have not yet strengthened it, and center Looney has allowed center Looney to sign with the Pelicans. The Warriors are interested in Horford, Melton and others, but no signing has been reached so far. In response to this, Bay Area reporters Marcus Thompson and Kawakami jointly recorded a podcast. When talking about the Warriors' no renewal or signing contract this summer, the two said: "All Warriors' operations were delayed by Kuminga."

At the same time, Warriors reporter MarcGrandi also talked about Kuminga's problem. MarcGrandi said: "The Warriors want to take all the initiative in the matter of Kuminga. So, until the matter of Kuminga is resolved in some way, they will not give any contracts that are higher than the veteran's basic salary. Until the situation of Kuminga is resolved, they may not even have a veteran's basic salary contract."

According to previous news, the market believes that Kuminga's value is about $20 million, but he does not accept this valuation. Similarly, the Warriors do not accept this price in the trade. It should be noted that as early as November last year, according to the joint report of famous reporters Sam Amick and John Hollinger, Kumingga's target annual salary is around $35 million, while the maximum annual salary offered by the Warriors is about $30 million, and the early renewal agreement has not been reached. Time comes to free agent market this summer, and Kumingga has lowered the price. He hopes to get a contract with an annual salary of at least $25 million, but still fails to do so. The Warriors have shown that they are unwilling to pay such a high annual salary in a long-term contract, and no other team in the market has offered him such a high-paying offer.

How do you think the Warriors and Kumingga should solve the current problem? Welcome to give your opinions in the comment section.
