Kuminga has seen some of the other bigger names in his draft class \u2014 <a class=\"ath_autolink\" data-id=\"xKlJ0Tp1E53cb36Q\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/nba\/player\/cade-cunningham-xKlJ0Tp1E53cb36Q\/\">Cade Cunningham<\/a>, <a class=\"ath_autolink\" data-id=\"q6oHKUdJcW7PgLaq\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/nba\/player\/scottie-barnes-q6oHKUdJcW7PgLaq\/\">Scottie Barnes<\/a>, <a class=\"ath_autolink\" data-id=\"sUx6k2FCcIJvJV6W\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/nba\/player\/franz-wagner-sUx6k2FCcIJvJV6W\/\">Franz Wagner<\/a> \u2014 secure max contract commitments from the teams that drafted them and believes he has the talent and upside to play himself into that range after flashing 20-plus point per game capability for long stretches last season.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s possible Kuminga would\u2019ve accepted a contract below max value, but the Warriors never upped their offer (somewhere near the $30ish million per year range) into an appealing enough ballpark. So the two sides plan to let Kuminga\u2019s fourth season play out before revisiting his future.<\/p>\n<p>Kuminga enters this season as a key figure on a Warriors\u2019 team with playoff aspirations. He will be in the starting lineup for Wednesday\u2019s opener in Portland, league sources said, and there appears to be a clear path for him to be a high-volume offensive weapon, perhaps even the team\u2019s second-leading scorer behind <a class=\"ath_autolink\" data-id=\"toS7DgUD3IIt7uds\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/nba\/player\/stephen-curry-toS7DgUD3IIt7uds\/\">Steph Curry<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Kuminga shot the 3 with more confidence and volume in the preseason, going 11 of 25 on mostly catch-and-shoot attempts in the halfcourt.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s what we\u2019ve been telling him,\u201d Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. \u201cYou\u2019re open, shoot it, especially if he\u2019s going to be a (small forward) with Draymond and Loon or Trayce (Jackson-Davis).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kuminga went 42 of 128 on catch-and-shoot 3s last season. That was fewer than two per game and only 32.8 percent accuracy. The Warriors want him to take more this season, and he said he wants to bump that percentage \u201cway\u201d upward, spending his summer drilling it. Anywhere in the vicinity of 40 percent would be a massive development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m still working on it,\u201d Kuminga said. \u201cI\u2019m just taking the ones that are open. I\u2019m taking better ones with my feet set. I know I\u2019ll make them. I\u2019m not overthinking it. Coach wants me to take the ones that are open and not think about it. The more you don\u2019t think about it, the more you make them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kuminga is on a $7.6 million deal this upcoming season, the final of his rookie contract. He will remain trade-eligible through February\u2019s deadline and, because he didn\u2019t sign an extension, he will be considered an intriguing piece for any rival franchise interested in investing in him long-term.<\/p>\n<h2>Required reading<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>(Photo: Ezra Shaw \/ Getty Images)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/5861273\/2024\/10\/21\/jonathan-kuminga-warriors-no-extension\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jonathan Kuminga and the Golden State Warriors will not come to an extension prior to Monday\u2019s deadline, league sources told The Athletic, meaning the emerging young wing will enter restricted &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/?p=116955\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-116955","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sports","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116955","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=116955"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116955\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=116955"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=116955"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=116955"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
