NBA Rumors: Warriors more open to Kuminga trade than Podziemski
The Warriors have been involved in several trade rumors this offseason especially for Utah’s Lauri Markkanen. The hold-up has been agreeing on value the Warriors are proposing trades centered around Moses Moody and draft picks while the Jazz are seeking picks along with both young wings Jonathan Kuminga and Brandin Podziemski.
It’s been well reported the Warriors’ main hesitation has been parting ways with Podziemski. Marc Stein recently confirmed this idea and discussed the possibility of Golden State trading Kuminga.
Stein’s report could be a turning point in the Markkanen trade discussions. If the Warriors Kuminga include in a trade along with Moody and picks this could land them Markkanen. However, it’s worth noting the Jazz are also rumored to prefer Podziemski in a Markkanen deal. Nevertheless, a package centered around Kuminga and picks could be the best return Utah gets.
