But, heard. Always with these guys I tell them I\u2019m willing to work with them, I wanna help people out, whether that\u2019s JK or any player on our roster. So, we\u2019re good with, if that\u2019s his wishes, trying to figure that out. But we gotta do what\u2019s best for our organization, and that\u2019s what we do.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The NBA trade deadline is coming up fast, as it\u2019s set for Feb. 5 at 3 p.m. ET.<\/p>\n<p>Kuminga could be moved by then, but Dunleavy now has to think about how to improve his roster after the season-ending ACL injury for All-Star <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/jimmy-butler\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jimmy Butler<\/a>. If the Warriors still wish to charge toward another NBA title for its trophy case, Dunleavy could be moving to fill that void.<\/p>\n<p>With Butler out, Kuminga was back in the fold on Tuesday, and he made the best of it with 20 points over 21 minutes off the bench against the Toronto Raptors. Toronto got the victory, 145-127, over Golden State.<\/p>\n<p>All things considered, Dunleavy and the front office will need to discuss if they will be buyers or sellers at the deadline. And perhaps Kuminga gets more playing time moving forward with Butler sidelined.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, it doesn\u2019t appear the Warriors GM is moving hastily to grant Kuminga\u2019s request.<\/p>\n<p><i><strong>Follow Fox News Digital\u2019s<\/strong><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FoxNewsSports_\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><strong>\u00a0sports coverage on X<\/strong><\/i><\/a><i><strong>\u00a0and subscribe to<\/strong><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/newsletters\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><strong>\u00a0the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter<\/strong><\/i><\/a><i><strong>.<\/strong><\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/warriors-gm-mike-dunleavy-delivers-subtle-jab-player-after-reported-trade-demand\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/warriors-gm-mike-dunleavy-delivers-subtle-jab-player-after-reported-trade-demand <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While reports indicate Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga wants to be traded, his GM had other things to say about the matter.
