    I wouldn't be surprised if kuminga gets traded. He has a ton of potential but he's too raw to help the warriors right now.

    Maybe a trade with the magic for Suggs or Memphis for 10 and Melton.

    You're right, I'm sorry, I didn't mean that. His stint with the Rockets was so memorable. So many great moments

    Nice to see he already has the "Bad Financial Karma" patch on the jersey.

    Kuminga seems like perfect trade bait
    Developmental guy with massive upside whom may need a couple of years to blossom (think 97-98 Tmac)
    Probably nothing more than 15-20 MPG off the bench in a playoff series next spring

    As for what he can be to them right now ...
    The centerpiece (alongside Wiseman, Wiggins salary) to a deal for another star vet
    Dubs are all-in to win NOW before window slams shut in 2 years

    Hope Stone is on the phone right now ...
    I'd take Kuminga & Wiseman for Wood & EGo in a heartbeat

    Wow, really? lol.

    Giddey was 7.5 assists per game starting as a 17 year old in a very physical league - he led the league in assists as a 17-18 year old rookie.

    His playmaking skills are a given - if not the best in this class, certainly comparable. The only question is whether he can shoot well enough

    Can’t believe the lakers went with Westbrook over buddy hield. Washington got so lucky.
