Golden State Warriors’ Draymond Green Speaks on the Former G League Ignite Player’s Future

The Golden State Warriors have a dilemma they need to address over the summer.

The Warriors are at a crossroads about what theyll do with Jonathan Kuminga , whos set to be a restricted free agent.

Time expired for Golden State before they could offer a contract extension for the former G League Ignite player.

Now, Kumingas future with the organization seems uncertain.

The Warriors forward spent the last four years developing into a reliable role player.

This season, he finished with 15.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists.

In the playoffs, his value was amplified when Stephen Curry went down with a hamstring strain in the second round against the Minnesota Timberwolves .

From Games 2 to 5, he led the team in scoring and averaged 24.3 points and 3.5 rebounds on 55.4 percent from the field.

On Monday, Draymond Green talked about his teammates potential future with the Warriors on a new episode of The Draymond Green Show.

Were gonna have to evaluate Jonathan Kuminga , Green said.

We all know his talent.

We all know, we all believe what he could be.

But now you have to make a huge financial commitment.

Green pointed out how Kuminga answered the question about his future.

The fourth-year player said there will be talks about his future in Golden State.

However, he expressed his appreciation for the head coach and what hes done for his career.

"Whether it's here or somewhere else, he gonna get paid and he gonna have a very bright future." @Money23Green on Jonathan Kuminga's future pic.twitter.com/8a5HD5K74G The Draymond Green Show with Baron Davis (@DraymondShow) May 20, 2025 The reality is, what he said is correct.

I love the way he handled it.

One things for certain.

Whether its here or somewhere else, hes going to get paid and hes going to have a bright future.

Kuminga was a seventh pick in 2020, and many believed that hed be the next great star player for the franchise.

However, Currys still strong, and the 6-foot-7 has gradually improved his game.

The Golden State Warriors star gave respect to Julius Randle The Golden State Warriors couldnt outlast the Wolves in the West semis.

Led by Anthony Edwards, Minnesota took advantage of a team that didnt have its best player due to injury.

Alongside Edwards was three-time All-Star Julius Randle.

He played great basketball and was one of the reasons why the team won the succeeding games.

In his podcast, Green gave credit to Randle for the work hes put in and how he performed.

I felt like I lost my matchup in that series.

Like, Julius was incredible.

And he played great basketball.

And honestly, like, some of the shots he was taking was shots that you want him to take.

And he made them.

You know what Im saying? Green said.

"I don't FEEL like I lost my matchup...
