General manager Mike Dunleavy and his front office have spent the past several weeks canvassing the market for Kuminga. The Sacramento Kings and Dallas Mavericks are among the teams that have shown interest in Kuminga as an intriguing part of their rebuild, league sources said, but several other teams are also in the mix because of his flexible contract structure.

總管 Mike Dunleavy 與其高層在過去幾週內，一直在市場上廣泛徵詢有關 Kuminga 的報價。根據聯盟消息人士透露，國王和獨行俠都在對 Kuminga 感興趣的球隊之列，並將其視為重建計畫中具吸引力的一環；然而，由於 Kuminga 的合約結構具有靈活性，還有其他幾支球隊也在爭奪行列中。

League sources said the Warriors have been prioritizing expiring contracts in return for Kuminga. They've declined the idea of taking back long-term contracts unless they view it as no-brainer positive value. That has been the holdup in conversations with Sacramento. The Warriors refuse to absorb the three years and $60.4 million remaining on Malik Monk's deal, though league sources said Keon Ellis (on a cheap expiring deal) is a potential sweetener of interest to them.

聯盟消息人士表示，勇士隊在尋求 Kuminga 的交易回報時，一直將到期合約列為首選。他們拒絕承接長期合約，除非他們認為該合約具有「不假思索的絕對價值」。這正是與國王隊談判停滯的原因——勇士拒絕吸收 Malik Monk 合約中剩餘的三年 6040 萬美元，儘管聯盟消息人士透露，Keon Ellis（擁有一份廉價的到期合約）是他們感興趣的潛在交易籌碼。

As of this week, the Warriors hadn't talked to the Brooklyn Nets in more than a month and have never shown real interest in a trade for wing Michael Porter Jr., league sources said. They've been fond of Trey Murphy III in the past, but the New Orleans Pelicans are rebuffing calls about all of their young wings, league sources said.

If the right star player is made available, the Warriors would be willing to move multiple first-round draft picks, team sources said, though they are more protective of their first-rounders in 2028 and beyond than their 2026 pick.

The Warriors' decision-makers have also given zero assurances to any team that Kuminga will be traded prior to the deadline, despite the dynamics at play, believing it could prove better business to push the decision to the summer. Rival executives said they believe that stance is a bluff and Kuminga will be moved.

截至本週，勇士隊與布魯克林籃網隊已超過一個月沒有聯繫，且聯盟消息人士稱，他們從未對交易側翼球員 Michael Porter Jr. 表現出實質興趣。他們過去一直很欣賞 Trey Murphy III，但聯盟消息人士表示，紐奧良鵜鶘隊拒絕了所有關於他們年輕側翼球員的詢價。

球隊消息人士指出，如果有合適的球星出現，勇士隊願意送出多個首輪選秀權，儘管比起 2026 年的選秀權，他們對 2028 年及之後的首輪籤保護意識更強。

儘管目前局勢複雜，勇士隊的決策者仍未向任何球隊保證會在截止日前交易 Kuminga，他們認為將決定推遲到夏天，或許在商業操作上更為有利。然而，對手球隊的高層則認為這種立場只是虛張聲勢，Kuminga 最終仍會被送走。
