Warriors' desperation deal for Jaren Jackson Jr. is just wild enough to work

Jonathan Kuminga and the Golden State Warriors both have their eyes on the clock. As soon as the fifth-year swingman became trade-eligible on Thursday, he requested his ticket out of town. One can easily assume Golden State is ready and willing to grant that wish—provided his market hasn't totally cratered already.

Not just any Kuminga trade will do, though. The Warriors need to somehow use his salary slot (plus most of the assets they possess) to extract real value. That's why a phone call to the Memphis Grizzlies should be in order.
