Jonathan Kuminga was reported to have agreed to a two-year deal with the Minnesota Timberwolves. NBA.com and AP reported the agreement, but outlets gave different figures for the total contract value.

The key issue is not the agreement itself, but that reports do not agree on the total value.

Details Confirmed in the Contract

According to reports, the deal is for two years, with a player option reportedly included in the second season. The reported total value is divided as follows.

NBA.com · NBC Sports Bay Area$13 million

Therefore, at this stage, it is difficult to definitively identify either $12.4 million or $13 million as the final contract value.

Why Minnesota Acquired Kuminga

Minnesota was reported to have acquired Kuminga to fill the power forward vacancy created after Julius Randle and Naz Reid departed. Kuminga’s decision was also reportedly influenced by the recruitment efforts of Minnesota figures, including Anthony Edwards.
