Thu Sep 12 | 22:38 | Jonathan Kuminga Extension Not Imminent |
According to Anthony Slater of The Athletic, "significant progress" in contract talks between the Golden State Warriors and forward Jonathan Kuminga has not been made. The 2021 No. 7 overall pick is entering the final season of his rookie contract. While the Warriors dismissed trade inquiries this offseason from other teams, it doesn't appear both sides are close to securing an extension. Kuminga finished last season by averaging a career-high 16.1 points and 4.8 rebounds. However, with Klay Thompson now in Dallas, the expectations are higher for the 21-year-old. His shooting percentage from deep needs to improve. But Kuminga will be a consistent member of the Warriors' rotation in 2024-25, giving him value in all fantasy setups. Both sides have until October 21 to agree on a new deal. If it isn't finalized by then, Kuminga will be a restricted free agent next summer. |

Sun May 12 | 20:43 | Jonathan Kuminga Not Expected To Be Traded |
According to ESPN's Ramona Shelburne, speaking on 95.7 The Game, the Warriors aren't expected to trade forward Jonathan Kuminga this summer. The Warriors undoubtedly need to tweak the roster to compete in a stacked Western Conference. But Kuminga, who was once rumored to be on the move, is anticipated to remain included in the team's plans moving ahead. The 21-year-old had a rough start to the 2023-24 campaign. However, he averaged 18.7 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 2.8 assists in 41 games to end the year. With that said, Kuminga appears ready to take a leap in his development, and he'll likely see more than enough interest from fantasy managers heading toward the new season. |

Fri Apr 12 | 21:31 | Jonathan Kuminga Ruled Out Versus New Orleans |
Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga (groin) won't play on Friday versus the Pelicans. With Klay Thompson (knee) not in the lineup for Thursday's win over the Portland Trail Blazers, The 2021 No. 7 overall pick got extra work, logging 34 minutes to finish with 19 points, six rebounds, and one steal. But it's the second of back-to-back contests, so Kuminga is likely getting the night off to rest, considering he's been banged up over the last month. With that said, Kuminga's absence could keep the door open for Brandin Podziemski and Moses Moody to remain more involved than usual. |

Fri Apr 12 | 16:31 | Jonathan Kuminga Listed As Questionable For Friday |
Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga (pelvis) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Kuminga played well, dropping 19 points with six rebounds during Thursday's game. However, it appears he picked up a pelvis contusion during the process. It's worth noting that Kuminga was filling in for Draymond Green (knee) who is now listed as probable for Friday. The return of Green means that Kuminga would move to the bench and would lose most of his streaming appeal anyway. Fantasy managers would have to check back closer to tip-off for more information. |

Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga (knee) remains out on Friday against the Mavericks. He's battling a knee issue, although it's tough to say when he'll return to the lineup.

Brandin Podziemski, who has struggled recently, might also be worth adding to all DFS lineups. |

Fri Apr 5 | 16:36 | Jonathan Kuminga Tagged As Questionable Friday |
Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga (knee) has been listed as questionable on Friday due to tendonitis in his knee. The up-and-coming wing has played a big role in the team's success this season and the last time he played was the start of their current six-game win streak. In that game against the Miami Heat, he posted 18 points, seven rebounds, three assists, one block, and one turnover. If he's able to play against the Dallas Mavericks on Friday, he could be a solid DFS option in his usual starting role. Trayce Jackson-Davis would be the one to move back to the bench if Kuminga does play. |

Houston is a mediocre rebounding team, giving Jackson-Davis an opportunity to attack a double-double on Thursday. |

While Kuminga misses his second consecutive game, Trayce Jackson-Davis will likely remain in the starting five with Moses Moody and Brandin Podziemski as the first two off of the bench. Draymond Green will probably get a big chunk of playing time in this one as well. |

Wed Mar 27 | 14:07 | Jonathan Kuminga, Trayce Jackson-Davis Both Questionable |
Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga (knee) and center Trayce Jackson-Davis (knee) are questionable for Wednesday's contest against the Orlando Magic. Both players are experiencing knee soreness, which could leave Golden State's frontcourt shorthanded against Paolo Banchero. Jackson-Davis is at risk of missing a second straight game, which would allow Kevon Looney to maintain reserve minutes from the Warriors' bench. Given the team's lack of depth in the frontcourt to begin with, the Dubs could be forced into a greater rate of small-ball units, with Draymond Green monopolizing center minutes. The 34-year-old veteran has been a dependable nine-category fantasy player lately, averaging 8.0 points, 8.4 rebounds, 6.8 assists, and 1.1 steals in 29.6 minutes over his last 10 games, but Green takes on a Magic team that's giving up the fourth-fewest FanDuel points to opposing centers. |

Fri Jan 26 | 11:14 | Warriors Reluctant To Trade Jonathan Kuminga |
Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga recently expressed his displeasure with how the organization is handling his development and playing time. However, the team is reluctant to trade him. Reportedly, Golden State would want an All-Star level player or an overpayment of draft capital to lure the 21-year-old lottery pick from the Bay Area. With a logjam of both Andrew Wiggins and Kuminga in the roster rotation, the team could benefit from unloading one of them, as the numbers of lineups when they are together on the floor are not favorable. Kuminga is coming off a career-high 31 points on Thursday, just a day after his perfect 11-for-11 shooting performance. |
