It’s happened. It’s finally happened. After negotiations arguably more arduous than Josh Giddey’s with the Chicago Bulls, restricted free agent forward Jonathan Kuminga has agreed to a contract with the Golden State Warriors.

According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, Jonathan Kuminga and the Warriors have agreed to a two-year, $48.5 million contract that includes a team option in the second season. Kuminga falls short of his push for a long-term deal worth $30 million annually but secures a payday $15 million above his would-be qualifying offer.
