Kuminga Trade Talks Back On | Atlanta Hawks News

The Jonathan Kuminga saga is heating up again, with the Lakers pushing hard for a sign-and-trade with Atlanta — but don’t get too excited, it’s still very much in flux.

Jaden Hardy’s name is floating around as a potential trade piece, but even he might not be enough to sweeten the pot for Atlanta, who’s already crowded and needs to trim to 15 players before camp. Plus, Kuminga’s contract demands — at least three years matching his value — could be the final hurdle. But here’s the twist: talks are reportedly back on, and with the Lakers persistent, this late-stage push could signal real momentum. No deal yet, but everyone’s finally serious.
