If Jonathan Kuminga's current free agency process wasn't already complicated enough, another layer has been added to the mix with the Golden State Warriors reportedly holding shock interest in Josh Giddey.
The shock derives from the fact that Giddey himself is in the same situation as Kuminga -- a restricted free agent where the market isn't aligning to his contract desires. Given base-year compensation rules impacting both players, a double sign-and-trade appears so difficult that it's quite stunning that this has emerged.

NBA insider Jake Fischer reported the explosive news on Thursday, stating that the Warriors would be interested in swapping the two restricted free agents if there was a possible pathway to making it happen.
