Jonathan Kuminga seeks $25 million annually amid Lakers, Cavs interest

Jonathan Kuminga, a free agent, reportedly seeks a deal worth $25 million per year as the Los Angeles Lakers and Cleveland Cavaliers pursue him. Currently, the Lakers have offered a two-year contract totaling $20 million. This discrepancy puts Kuminga in a challenging negotiation position, reminiscent of last offseason's situation when he sought a higher deal from the Warriors. As an unrestricted free agent, he has a broader market yet remains unsigned as other free agents have completed their deals. The negotiation dynamic suggests a potential impasse until both parties can find common ground.
