Warriors get Jonathan Kuminga trade lifeline from the most unlikely source

The Golden State Warriors and the Sacramento Kings hold the keys to what comes next during the 2025 NBA offseason. The Kings' interest in Jonathan Kuminga has turned a polarizing saga into an event that will go a long way toward dictating how the other dominoes fall in free agency.

With news that Kuminga would rather accept his qualifying offer than the Warriors' latest proposal, an unlikely source has provided Golden State with reason for optimism: Domantas Sabonis.

Sabonis, a two-time All-NBA honoree and three-time All-Star, is preparing for his fourth season with the Kings.
