Jonathan Kuminga signs two-year, $12.4M contract with Timberwolves

Jonathan Kuminga has reached an agreement with the Minnesota Timberwolves on a two-year contract worth $12.4 million, effective later this summer. This deal follows the Atlanta Hawks' decision to decline his $24.3 million team option, significantly altering his market value. Former NBA player Gilbert Arenas criticized the size of the contract, noting Kuminga's recent performance as a factor in the reduced offer. Kuminga averaged 12.2 points last season, but his inconsistent three-point shooting and limited starting roles have raised questions about his long-term value. The Los Angeles Lakers had also reportedly offered a more lucrative deal, making Kuminga's choice to sign with Minnesota particularly intriguing.
