Jimmy Butler has reportedly pressed the Warriors to resolve Kuminga’s contract, asking for a concrete plan as training camp nears. He, Draymond Green and Curry are in the loop, but no deal is yet in place and time is tight.

The core dispute centers on Kuminga’s desire for a final-year player option, while Golden State counteroffers with a team option around $75M over three years (or $54M with no option). Until resolved, offseason targets like Al Horford, De’Anthony Melton, Gary Payton II and Seth Curry are stalled, and Curry’s leadership remains a crucial factor as the clock ticks toward camp.

With camp set to open in less than two weeks, Kuminga must decide on the $7.9M qualifying offer or risk unrestricted free agency next summer, and the Warriors’ title window hangs in the balance as the star trio weighs front-office strategy against roster cohesion.
