Kuminga is a restricted free agent, which puts him in a tricky spot. In the free-wheeling offseasons of yesteryear, RFAs would get massive offer sheets from other teams, which would force their current team to either match the deal or let them walk for that big money.

According to ESPN's Anthony Slater, who was speaking via ESPN 1320 Sacramento, Kuminga has already held talks with the Kings front office and has been interested in the role on offer, along with the overall pitch. Slater also noted that Kuminga is more focused on the on-court role he will receive, rather than the monetary value of his next deal.
