Running away from Jinzhou is a foregone conclusion? Only one team in the league can give high salaries, and Kumingga is expected to become the new king of this team

If it weren't for Butler's arrival, Cumingga might have really made a fortune this season in his contract year to seek a high-paying contract, but the arrival of this All-Star forward also made Cumingga fall out of favor with Cole. If Curry hadn't suffered injuries in the playoffs, Cumingga might have really been on the bench.
For the Warriors, because of Butler, Kumingga is destined to be unable to obtain the core position he wants. Even if the boss Lacob expressed his future optimism to Cumingga, if Cole doesn't use it, it wouldn't be meaningful to just Lacob beloved him alone. Recently, according to salary expert Bobby marks, the Warriors are expected to only add a qualification quotation contract of only 7.9 million this summer to make him a restricted player. In other words, if there are no other teams, the Warriors can use the 7.9 million yuan to keep Kumingga, but if a team offers a larger contract to Kumingga, the Warriors have the right to match it. But judging from the current situation, if there is a team that really spends a lot of money on Kumingga, the Warriors will most likely not keep him.
The most likely candidate for Kumingga in the league is the Nets. The Nets are the only team that can provide a starting salary of 20 million or higher. Not long ago, the Nets also expressed their love for Kumingga. Considering that the Nets are currently lacking in the forward position (just Johnson is only likely to be traded this summer), Kumingga, who is only 22 years old, is likely to fully realize his talent if he can go to Brooklyn. If the Nets do not intend to attract superstars in a short period of time, Kumingga can temporarily play the role of the team's star.
This season's regular season, Kumingga scored 15.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game during 24.3 minutes of playing time. When Curry was injured in the playoffs, he was ordered to return some of his value. He scored 15.3 points, 2.5 rebounds per game, and his three-point shooting percentage soared from 30.5% in the regular season to 40%. If he converts his regular season data to every 36 minutes, Kumingga can average 22.6 points, 6.8 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game, second only to Curry in every 36 minutes, and even nearly 2 points higher than Butler. It is enough to prove that if Kumingjia is given sufficient playing time and ball rights, he has the potential to become a quasi-All-star or even an All-Star player.
In fact, the Warriors' trade this season, butler, who is already 35 years old, proves that the team has no time to take care of the growth of young players. As a young man with a certain trading value, if the Warriors can reach a sign first and then exchange, and really send him to the Nets to exchange for the immediate combat power similar to those of Warriors like Clarkston, there is actually a chance to win-win. For Kumingga, if the Nets have not recruited superstars in recent years, he can be the king of Brooklyn for a short time and make a fortune. In the next two years, he will even have a good chance to make himself on the All-Star stage and slap Cole in the face.
