Kuminga Back to Hawks? Free Agency Update | NBA News

Jonathan Kuminga’s future just got spicy — the Hawks declined his team option, making him a free agent, but they’re still circling back with a potential one-year deal plus an option. With cap space and roster crunch, they’ll need to move pieces to make it work. Kuminga, who was part of the Porziņģis-for-Kuminga trade last February, averaged 12 points and 5 rebounds in 16 games for Atlanta and flashed playoff potential off the bench. The Lakers are hot on his trail, eyeing him as a high-minute wing next to Luka, with rumored offers around $20M over two years — though Kuminga’s targeting closer to that per year. Other suitors include the Clippers, Cavs, Bucks, and even the Kings. With multiple teams intrigued, Kuminga’s next move could reshape the NBA’s wing landscape.
