The Golden State Warriors Mastermind Turned Chaos Into Control
The Golden State Warriors mastermind, GM Mike Dunleavy Jr., just turned pure chaos into complete control. While Jonathan Kuminga’s contract negotiations dragged on and created uncertainty around the team’s future, Dunleavy stayed calm under pressure and executed one of the smartest off-seasons we’ve seen. Not only did he secure Al Horford, De’Anthony Melton, and Seth Curry without letting rivals catch wind, but he also structured Kuminga’s deal as a two-year contract with team control for the second season, a huge win that protects the Warriors’ long-term flexibility.
In this video, we break down how Dunleavy managed the timing, secrecy, and leverage that flipped a potentially disastrous situation into one of Golden State’s best off-season plays in years. From keeping the market guessing, to crafting contracts that fit both the present and future, Dunleavy proved that patience and precision can outmatch panic and overreaction. This wasn’t just free agency, it was strategy at its highest level.

The Golden State Warriors Mastermind Turned Chaos Into Control

They're going all in on this season. It's a title or bust, with all these 1-year minimum deals, and big signings. The Warriors are almost guaranteed to trade Kuminga on January 15th and try to either get a 3 and D guy or another big. If they can, the Warriors would have a team that can rival the Thunder, and the Nuggets in terms of depth alone, let alone star power.
