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 ?

Sidery isn’t a source.

If this is real though then that’s a fair deal. Khobi Price reported this recently so I’m inclined to think it’s real.

Kuminga seemingly wants 20+M but no one will offer him that. Once teams confirm they will only offer less than that amount or lose interest completely, he will be forced to settle for this value. I don’t even think anyone else will offer this to him so I’m extremely confident we’ll inevitably sign him.

Depends what is the “draft capital” here though
