Warriors Kumingga s contract renewal deadlock, it is said that four contracts have been finalized

On August 6, the NBA offseason entered the second half, but the Golden State Warriors became the only team among the 30 teams in the league that has not yet completed any official signing or deal. It seems calm on the surface, but in fact it is undercurrent - all the actions are stuck in the contract renewal negotiations of young forward Jonathan Kumingga. The tug-of-war between the Warriors and the Kumingga team has evolved into a long "soap opera". The two sides did not give in to each other in terms of contract amount and age, and the team's management was in a dilemma: they were afraid that hasty operations would trigger the rule loophole, which led to Kumingga being signed by other teams in a "small way" way, and they had to make plans for the lineup next season. It is this prudence that has put the Warriors' signing window to a standstill. Plan B under the stalemate: Four oral agreements surfaced, however, the Warriors were not unprepared. According to well-known reporter Keith Siegel and other sources, the management has already quietly made arrangements and reached oral signing agreements with many practical players. It will be officially announced when Kumingga's problems are settled:

Experience inside lineup: Veteran Al Horford has reached an intention to join with the Warriors. This inside player who can support, open up space and have rich defensive experience will provide the team with much-needed lineup depth and playoff wisdom.

Operative Defensive Pioneer: Defender Dantoni Melton also agreed to join. His strong defense and reliable three-point shooting (36.9% career three-point shooting percentage) perfectly fits the Warriors system's demand for 3D wings.

Champion former player returns: Gary Payton II, who is loved by Bay Area fans, plans to return with a basic salary. The energy, defense and air-cutting ability of this 2022 champion is an indispensable puzzle for the Warriors' bench.

Curry brothers join forces: Seth Curry is expected to join the Warriors with a basic salary. The story of the brothers being in the same team is finally about to be staged. Seth's historical three-point shooting percentage (43.5% of his career) will add another heavy gun to the Warriors' outside firepower. The joining of these four players is expected to be completed with a basic salary contract, which is very cost-effective. Payton's return is natural, and Seth's collaboration with his brother Stephen is even more topical.

Golden State Fan: Waiting is the only choice

The Warriors' signing puzzle is ready. Horford's support, Melton's defense, Payton's vitality, Seth Curry's sharp shooting, each potential signing targets the team's shortcomings. But all these beautiful blueprints were pressed by the pause button for Kumingga's renewal of the contract.

The Golden State management is obviously playing a high-stakes strategy waiting game. They bet on time to stand on their side, hoping that the Kumingga team would eventually compromise or find a clever solution within the rules. Although the fans were anxious, they could only wait - after all, all the moves in the Warriors' big game were all based on Kumingga alone. This silent game may trigger the last climax of the offseason at any time.
