The Sacramento Kings are showing interest in unrestricted free agent wing Jonathan Kuminga. However, they are reluctant to engage in sign-and-trade discussions, which would impose a hard cap on their payroll. Without a trade involving the Atlanta Hawks, the Kings can only extend a minimum offer to Kuminga, limiting their options. Sources indicate that negotiations have not progressed due to these salary cap constraints.
