The Golden State Warriors are not inclined to trade Jonathan Kuminga for less than his true value. They see him as a valuable asset and are aiming for a significant return if they decide to move him. The Chicago Bulls have emerged as a potential trade partner, expressing interest in Kuminga, who would seamlessly integrate into their plans as a starting player. The proposed trade would involve the Warriors receiving Kevin Huerter and a first-round pick from the Portland Trail Blazers, while the Bulls acquire Kuminga. However, this trade may not fully meet the Warriors' expectations, as Huerter's defensive struggles could be a mismatch with their current roster.

The Warriors are also weighing the option of extending Kuminga and reassessing his situation during the season for a potential future trade. Keeping him could be beneficial, allowing time to evaluate his development and trade value down the line.
