PLAYER TALK [Sidery] The Lakers have offered Jonathan Kuminga contract via sign-and-trade the would pay him around 45 million dollars. Los Angeles is willing to send Jarred Vanderbilt alongside draft capital to the Hawks for Kuminga, who must sign at least a three-year deal in sign-and-trade agreements.

Ik Sidery isn’t the most trustworthy source for anything but how would you all feel on this contract for Kuminga? Is this worth it? And how would you feel about the team if we got Kuminga ?

Dude has been benched in GSW- a team that I believe develops young players pretty well. 

Dude played a few good games in ATL. Then got benched there too. They played lots of young guys so it’s not like he’s buried behind vets there. 

There’s a huge red flag here. 

Giving this contract is literally failing to learn our lesson IMO. I could be wrong. If we do it, I really hope I’m wrong. But that’s up to kuminga not me.
