Warriors rumor confirms the Bulls did the right thing choosing Giddey over Kuminga

After months of not-really-contentious negotiations, the Chicago Bulls signed Josh Giddey to a four-year, $100 million contract, cementing his status as the franchise's future at the point guard spot. Chicago was linked to Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga at several points this summer, but based on their respective reported contract demands, choosing Giddey was the right call.

Kuminga is one of the NBA's "big four" restricted free agents this offseason, along with Giddey, Cam Thomas of the Brooklyn Nets and Quentin Grimes of the Philadelphia 76ers. Kuminga and Grimes' futures are still up in the air, but Golden State's negotiations with its young forward have been far more combative than the others.
