Warriors Offer LEAKED…
Folks, let me ask you a question. What team is the only team in the NBA to not make any free agent signings? Kaminga, Bazinga, the Warriors. All because of Kaminga’s situation. And we’ve been reporting on it a lot. It’s become a bit of a dead period. Four days since our last video. We want to make sure we’re giving you relevant, timely information and new news broke today on the Warriors offer to Kaminga and his rejection of it. What is that deal? We’re going to break it down for you right now. And then based off that offer, we’re going to look at other players who make the same amount of money. Compare stats to see if that’s a good offer or bad offer. Please like, subscribe to Wars Digest so you don’t miss any news daily when it comes. Obviously, it’s the quiet period. summer league is over. Some free agent stuff, trading may be happening here and there, but really now it’s just a dog days of summer until we get to training camp. But for the Warriors, they’re in the thick of a contract battle negotiation. We haven’t seen something like this in a while. Uh, and it’s Kaminga, folks. Again, word is the Warriors best offer to Kaminga per Mark Stein. Two years 40 million range. So that’s 20 million per year. That’s what we’re going to go with the average value of the contract. ACV, average contract value. Still looking for signing trade opportunities with the Kings and Phoenix. We broke that down a bunch potential plays. If Kaminga goes to the Kings, they probably let Demar Rosen go. Who do we get back? There’s I would love to get Keegan Murray. I don’t think they’re giving him up. Malik Monk gives you some shooting, but it sounds like he’s not part of it. It’d be the backup point guard and maybe some draft picks. Suns don’t have any first round picks to offer. The Warriors want at least a first round pick back in the signing trade. Why? Maybe they think he’s got that potential, but of course they drafted him in the first round when he was picked and he’s NBA champion. So folks, his stats this season again, he had the ankle injury which kept him out for basically most of the winter, like December to February, maybe a little bit longer. No. Yeah, something like that. But, you know, he was out. You can see here he missed like 30-ish games, 15 points, four rebounds, two assists. So based on that, let’s we’re going average contract 20 million per year. So let’s look at this. I’m going to take my camera off probably. Yeah, kind of blocking it. So let’s take the camera off for a second. Who is making 20 million per year first off? So let’s look at the value. So you see year’s value and average annual value right there. That’s what we want. So we go down 20 million per year. Jared Allen center with Cleveland. Lonzo Ball with with Cleveland now was with Chicago the Bulls. Josh Hart shooting guard the Knicks. Alex Caruso twotime NBA champion. OKC. Dylan Brooks just trended from Houston to Phoenix 21 million. Aaron Garden Denver 21 million. And then Kyle Kuzma 22 million. DeAndre Hunter 22 million, Mikuel Bridges 22 million. So that’s the range we’re looking at. So let’s look at the stats again. Kaminga stats collectively and we want to look at year four because that’s what we’re going now. We’re going to year five. So through four years, Kaminga’s averaged 12 and a half points, four rebounds, started 84 games, 22 minutes a game. You look at his efficiency, 1.3 scoring, shooting 0.55, not good. So, Lonzo Ball, we know had some injury issues. If we look at his stats again, just to go back to Kaminga, so 12.5 points in his first four years. You look at Lonzo Ball, different position. Point guard was basically around 12 points. Below 12, a little bit above 12 right here. So maybe closer to like 11. You look at Kaminga’s assist. Now this is where Lonzo should beat them as a point guard. Assists per game 1.8. Rebounds per game four. Assists per game was around six. And rebounds per game was around six. So more of an allround player in that sense. You look at his shooting. He’s shooting 50% from the field, 33% from three. Lonzo was shooting pretty bad from three to start, then really increased it. So, we’ll call this like a 34 35% and then field goal was not where Kaminga is. We know Kaminga gets to the bucket much more. If you look at Lonzo Ball, that’s his fourth year contract. Again, like, subscribe, comment to this stuff, folks. Let me know if you like this type of stuff. If you look at his contract, career earnings, total cash, 6 million, 7 million, 8 million, 11 million. Then year four jumped up to 18, 19, 20. So a little bit below what Kaminga wants or they offered Kaminga 20 million per year. His stats probably all around a bit better, but kind of the same range. So I would say this is a net net even. Comment your thoughts if you agree. Now, let’s do the same thing for Josh Hart. Let me get that ready to go. So, you look at Josh Hart. More of the same type of position. Oops, I clicked the wrong button. One second. Stats. So, if we look at again, Kaminga 12 and a half points through four years. Josh Hart, Lakers for two, New Orleans for two, was below 10 points. So, Kaminga has him on the points. You look at assist and rebounds. 18 40 Josh Hart closer to after two his third and fourth year doing much better. Probably closer to six. Assist very similar there. probably like a one5 field percentage 42 43% 3 point probably closer to the 35 with an outlier his his first year when you look at Kaminga again 50% and 33%. So, you look at Josh Hart’s career earnings, his year four, 7 million, 4 million, 4 million, 8 million, 12 million, and now starting to get paid 8 million, excuse me, $8 million range in his eighth yearish. So, Kaminga, I would say, is above Josh Hart in terms of what he’s done for the team. more valuable to the Warriors and what he’s done. I’m not saying he could be better, but he’s done more for the Warriors and earns a bigger contract. Is it 20 million? I don’t know. But I would say he deserves a bigger contract going into year four than 7 million based off of his production. Now, that takes you to Alex Caruso. Let’s gear this up. So you look at Alex Russo again, we know he started on the bench as a Laker G-League player and then worked his way up to becoming a very fantastic role player spot starter. His points are going to be way below Kaminga. His rebounds are way below Kaminga. His field goal percentage is below Kaminga. His three-point percentage bounces all the way around, but it’s probably even the Kaminga. So you look at Caruso year four, one, two, three, four, eight and a half million dollars from the Bulls. Now as he enters year eight, he’s getting 18, 19, $20 million like Josh Hart, veteran, earned himself in the league, potential growth, growth. Okay, getting money. So is this more of the trajectory Kaminga should get? Again, Kaminga has more production than them, but is he closer to the 101 million range per year versus 20 in year four? You’re seeing two players veterans haven’t had the same status on the team. Okay. What about Kyle Koosma? Kuzzma was big on the Lakers and then obviously got traded away. No, I mean he walked he signed free agency with Washington. Was it a sign or a trade? He signed with Washington. Yeah, he got bagged. So, Koozma came in right away out of Stanford, if remember correctly. Is that right? Stanford, Utah, excuse me. And uh Pack 12 school, former Pack 12. Uh did really well. Started a lot of games his first year and then became a solid solid starter his second year. Kind of fell off back half of the Lakers. He’s averaging close to 13 14 points a game. is averaging let’s just call it two assists rebounds around five threes 33% and field percentage low 40s so in some areas better than Kaminga Ed is lower KMA’s contract 13 million a year his fourth year left to go to the wizards 1313 and then boom massive jump 25 million Now he’s making mid20s. So I think this is similar to Kaminga’s starter, big role, fell out, things of that nature. Probably closer for Kaminga. 13 to 15 million what Koozma got. And the last person to show Jared Allen. We go back to Jared Allen. Different position. Play center. Start in Brooklyn. moved to Cleveland, but was more of a slow roller and really has picked it up in Cleveland, averaging, we’ll call it almost 11 points a game, maybe a little bit below in the 10 and a half range. Field goal percentage, high 50s, low 60s, three-point, it’s not there. That’s not his game. Rebounding, seven a game assist, we’ll call it one and a half a game. So good production, solid player, and then went to Cleveland and got more money if So I mean, he went to Cleveland because he got traded, but um where’s your He’s not earning 20 million a year until one, two, three, four, year five. So kind of where Kaminga is 20 million a year. And they have similar production. Allen is a focal point of Cleveland. Earn the money, make some money. However, Kaminga will not be the focal point of the Warriors on this contract. We know that Steph, Dre, and Butler. So, the question is, is he worth that type of money? Probably not. When you look at some people making that money now, obviously salary caps change over time and there’s more money to be given out, things of that nature. So, that’s a plays a part, but helping you get an idea and come together. than make your own conclusion. So like, comment, subscribe what you think, and of course anything that comes out, we’ll keep you updated.

I told you there was no $150M contract JK turned down. The Warriors are lying.
If he doesn’t take the offer he is greed they are giving him a chance to prove himself and get picked up later
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
KUMINGA IS A DIVA BRUH 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏿
They say they best offer was 2 year 40 million so last year they offered him 2 years 28 maybe
Bla Bla Bla. Talk about something else or don't talk at all.
Your comparison is skewed, none of the guys you compared JK to played inconsistent minutes like him. Most of those guys were starters and Kerr gives him DNP's.
Love this sort of analysis
it's crazy to turn down 20m's/yr. what if, due to circumstances beyond his control, he doesn't get the opportunity to prove he's worth more. why not just take it and once you're getting paid continue to prove you deserve better?
Comparing a Supra to a Ford Fiesta
People will say $20mil is solid but I know the boi, he doesn't care that much about the money, he will take $19.5 mil else where if available before accepting the $20mil he's being offered here.
He just doesn't want to be in the Bae anymore understandable. So instead of insulting him we should understand the team hasn't done good by him and this is business he has to do what he got to do. He is 22 years young and have +10 years in this league if not more. He will get paid now or in 4 years doesn't matter.
Klay Thompson took less money with the Mavs compared to what he was being offered here. Not everyone grew up in the mentality of putting money first.
Last year a lot of fake news came about the $30mil that he declined and he never got offered that kind of money.
JK will never be a franchise player. All star, yes. Not the right mindset, which is needed to be a franchise player.
Not adjusting salaries according to the cap is dumb
With the new cba, 20 mil is close to 10m 4 years ago
I love hearing the comparisons & what may happen. You folks have a much better understanding of all facets of the NBA than I, so, please continue to offer your views👍
All the guys you brought up got way more time and opportunities on the court than JK. Maybe Alex C. But all of them had way more opportunities than Kerr has given JK
kuminga actual worth for his production is 12-16 million a year. if kuminga making 20 million plus, he is probably an albatross contract because he is a bad defender, and doesnt do much for you off ball. kuminga needs the ball in his hands. its why he isnt valued.
😂😂😂😂 the warriors did it to themselves, 3 players have capped them
Dubs gotta reap what you sow. Basically tanked his stock, and now that no team really wants him and he is doing what anyone else would do in his position. Any team that is interested isn't going to give up a 1st round pick as they know GSW is desperate. If JK was that good he would of been picked up already. Like I said before, GSW SHOULD have traded this bum a year ago. Where all the JK bandwagon 304s at? Told ya'll this kid is a bum just like Wisemen.
Everything you say is good and correct. JK’s problem is Kerr’s utilization. He firmly believes that Kerr has reduced his market value, and if he returns to the Warriors, this will likely continue. So, I think the Warriors need to move on from JK. It is beyond repair, so they need to pull the trigger quickly. No way JK will play under Kerr.
you have no idea how to compare players
stathead has a player comparison tool you can use instead of flipping between two tabs
