Jonathan Kuminga is reportedly who the Golden State Warriors are currently shopping.

And this makes sense, Kuminga is a talented young power forward who is not getting the minutes he needs to develop given that he plays behind Draymond Green on the roster, one of the best power forwards in the league. But many believe the Kuminga has serious potential.

And many reputable sources around the league seem to indicate that this is exactly who the Warriors are shopping for a higher draft pick. Including ESPN’s Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo who write that:

"“The appetite for taking on more projects will likely be limited due to their narrow window for maximizing the prime of Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and others. Sources tell ESPN the Warriors are also exploring the option of acquiring a high draft pick in exchange for a young prospect such as Jonathan Kuminga.”"

And while some draft picks such as Portland’s and Charlotte’s may be more enticing, it will also take much more than Kuminga to pry those picks away from those franchises. However, Kuminga may fall perfectly in the tradable range for the current Pacers situation.
