Seventh overall pick Jonathan Kuminga formally signed his rookie scale contract with the Warriors on Tuesday, per NBA.com’s transactions log.
Kuminga made it official with Golden State a day before making his pro debut at the California Classic Summer League in Sacramento. He scored 18 points on 7-of-14 shooting against Miami’s Summer League squad on Wednesday.
As our breakdown of this year’s rookie scale salaries shows, Kuminga – the No. 7 overall pick in last Thursday’s draft – is projected to earn $5.47MM in his rookie season, assuming he signed for the maximum allowable amount (120% of the rookie scale). His four-year deal will be worth nearly $25MM in total.
The Warriors haven’t made an official announcement yet about signing Kuminga — they’ll likely send out a press release in the coming days to announce his deal and Moses Moody‘s at the same time.
Raising their luxury tax bill up to $141M.
Dude, if Lacob doesn’t care, why do you so much?
Someone has a crush on Jacob…hehe
Owner makes that or more in a week. If an organization gonna keep homegrown talent that become stars this what u sign up for. Plus warriors in repeater tax so cost is even more…
Joe Lacob makes over 7.3 billion dollars a year?
But then how is his net worth only $1.2 billion?
Why do you care so much? It is not your money. Don’t you something else you could be doing. Your obsession with the Warriors finances is bizarre.
It’s just fun to watch the Warriors dig themselves into a financial nightmare as the keep missing the playoffs (2 years and counting).
Now they have to pay Curry $52M/year for the next 5 years, Klay $40M/year for the next 3 years, and Draymond $26M/year for the next 3 years and doom the franchise for who knows how long after they have to sell the team once they declare bankruptcy.
Joe Lacob has been a NBA owner for 15 years, and a Partner at Kleiner Perkins for 30+ years. I think you can sleep at night knowing the Warriors probably aren’t going bankrupt anytime soon. I think it is cute and sweet that you are that worried about the Warriors.
Now they “have to pay” Curry? Bro, there isn’t a single player on the Rockets that somewhat resembles a franchise changing player like Steph. You allow the Lakers and Warriors to live in your head rent free and it’s hilarious
What!!!!?
Go find a new name. That’s tip money for Warriors.
Kuminga one of best talents who never should have fallen here. And this is what you want to say. Silly
Kuminga is going to surprise a lot of people. Including the Warriors. This is an IQ player who is still learning. He’s perfect for this team. His shot has to improve. And it will on this team. Kuminga should start at SF. He’ll be a top Rookie. More important he’ll make the Warriors a better team right away. Imo this was a gift to Warriors. Best 2way player in draft.
Warriors won’t win another title while curry is on roster
And it only took you a week to come up with that bit of smack talking. Keep it up buddy. Someday it will only take you 24 hours.
Kuminga is a beast, I totally expect him to own the starting SF position ahead of Wigs, as he already is sooo much better than Wigs right now!!!
So bizarre how obsessed WallyWood is with GS. I’m not a GS fan, but Curry has turned that franchise into a money making machine. I’d say he deserves this big contract.
It’s funny when a team won’t spend any money they get killed for it
When a team gets in the luxury tax they get killed
Personal I’d rather have my
Team spend the money that the fans give them back into the team just me thou
