They still have to deal with Jonathan Kuminga, who could start a new chapter in his career with a different team. Ther Warriors and Suns have been linked in a potential deal for Kuminga in exchange for Dillon Brooks. However, NBA insider Brett Siegel reported on Thursday that Phoenix has no intention of trading Brooks, and the Dubs are not interested in him.

"“Phoenix has not offered, and will not involve, newly acquired wing Dillon Brooks in trade conversations this offseason, nor would the Warriors hold interest in him, sources said,” Siegel wrote, via ClutchPoints.

NBA insider reveals Warriors star Jonathan Kuminga's preferred team

Jonathan Kuminga is in a interesting situation this offseason. The former first-round pick reportedly rejected an extension offer from the Warriors over disagreement with some terms in his contract.

NBA insider Marc J. Spears revealed Kuminga's preferred team on Wednesday.

"He wants to go,” Spears said, via "NBA Today." “He wants to go. And the Kings are offering a starting spot, power forward next to Keegan Murray, next to (Domantas) Sabonis. He’s talked on a Zoom call with Scott Perry, the GM, BJ Armstrong, the assistant GM, and also with their head coach. So he’s in. He wants to go there"

Despite his interest in Sacramento, Golden State has not made drastic efforts to ship him. The only way for Kuminga to leave is via sign-and-trade, as he is a restricted free agent. Meanwhile, the Kings don't have enough cap space to sign him.

Sacramento reportedly offered a conditional first-round pick, but the Warriors demanded an unprotected first-round pick, and a deal was not completed.
