NBA trade rumor: Cleveland Cavaliers linked to land former Stephen Curry teammate for $18 million to pair with James Harden
Jonathan Kuminga's free agency has narrowed to a two-team race between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Los Angeles Lakers, both of whom are reportedly capping offers around $18 million annually after his original $20 million-plus ask. The Cavaliers' history with head coach Kenny Atkinson, who coached Kuminga during Golden State's title run, is seen as a real edge in the pursuit. With Donovan Mitchell now extended and Cleveland working to bring back James Harden, landing Kuminga would fill the roster's clearest remaining need at wing.
