The Golden State Warriors are considered one of the most successful franchises in the last decade or so.
Stephen Curry has redefined how basketball is played and has usually made every player who suits up for the Dubs better, but there are some rare cases where that isn't true.
According to NBA contributor at Forbes, Evan Sidery, the Milwaukee Bucks and Warriors have discussed a sign-and-trade revolving around Jonathan Kuminga.
“The Bucks have explored sign-and-trade scenarios to obtain Jonathan Kuminga,” Sidery said Tuesday. “The Warriors show little interest in Kyle Kuzma, so it would take attaching their 2031 1st plus a prospect to gain any significant traction. In the meantime, Kuminga’s market appears in a standstill.”
The 22-year-old hybrid forward averaged over 15 points per game the last two seasons but has received inconsistent minutes ever since he was drafted.

Frustrations have grown between the two parties, and now Kuminga may be on his way out.
The Bucks don’t have much to offer with the recent signing of Myles Turner and the waiving of Damian Lillard.
Value-wise, Kuminga has proved he is talented, and Milwaukee lacks young expendable talent, meaning they would heavily rely on picks in order to bring him in.
Not long ago, the Sacramento Kings were the frontrunners to land Kuminga, but nothing has caught the Warriors' attention.
If he does end up in Milwaukee, he could see an increased role and find a place where he can blossom into a star.
