As the league's highest-paid team, the Warriors pay a huge luxury tax, but they don't have a good record, finishing only 10th in the West and currently chasing a play-in spot. For the Warriors, Kutang's combination is already a veteran combination, Curry is 35 years old, Green and Thompson are 34 years old, they have all experienced a significant decline, and in the case of Wiggins' mud can't support the wall, the team urgently needs to find a future ** person. He was once suppressed by Kerr, and now he averages 18+6 per game, becoming Curry's ** person, and impacting 1500 million big contracts.
After Curry became a veteran, the Warriors have been cultivating good seedlings, from Wiggins to Poole to Wiseman, and eventually all of them have gone down the drain. Wiggins and Poole got a 100 million dollar contract, and now Wiggins is doing badly, and Poole has been traded to the Wizards. Wiseman also became a blue-collar worker and now plays for the Pistons. Now this Warriors team, the person who has the best chance to take over the banner, Kuminga without suspense.
The team's head coach, Kerr, is a role player by background and a white player, so he prefers to give white role players a chance, and Podjemkis is the best example of this. Previously, Kuminga and Moody had publicly bombarded, bluntly saying that there were too few opportunities to play, and if they had no intention of cultivating, they could be traded. At that time, Cole was also angry, saying that he had come over like this throughout his career.
However, the bombardment worked, as Kuminga averaged just 19 minutes per game in his first 20 games, and came off the bench in 19 games, starting only once. But in the next 32 games, Kuminga averaged 29 minutes per game, starting 25 of them, and all of them qualified to play crunch time.
In the first 20 games, Kuminga averaged 111 point 22 rebounds and 2With 9 assists and a shooting percentage of 46%, the performance is decent. However, in the last 32 games, Kuminga has averaged 182 points 58 rebounds and 25 assists and 56% shooting. He has locked up his place in the starting line-up and has proven himself thoroughly.
Last season, Kuminga averaged just 9With nine points in his name, he's improving rapidly, and after the All-Star, his stats are likely to improve even further, and he has a good chance of winning the Most Improved Player award. Previously, the Warriors gave big contracts to Wiggins and Poole, and it turned out that neither of them could carry the team. Now they are eyeing Kuminga, who, according to salary expert Marks, has a contract extension that will probably be in five years500 million or so, with an average salary of $30 million.
Jaden McDaniels of the Timberwolves, averaging 107 points 27 rebounds, it was 5 years 1$300 million in contract extensions, so Kuminga definitely deserves 1Big contract of 500 million. The Warriors have a team option next season, and an early contract extension is likely to be a great value. However, Kuminga is also likely to gamble for another year, and if he can explode in the fourth year, he will have a chance to hit the max contract.
