Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga remains one of the notable restricted free agents this summer, but that group has became smaller on Thursday after Cam Thomas made a decision on his future.
The Brooklyn Nets guard has taken the leap to sign his $6 million qualifying offer, with Thomas clearly unmotivated by other offers and choosing instead to take control of his own destiny where he now has a no-trade clause and will become an unrestricted free agent in 2026.
However, signing the qualifying offer does present Thomas with some risks, as it will for Kuminga if he follows a similar path before the October 1 deadline.
