An analyst recently named the Golden State Warriors as a team he believes should pursue a former first overall pick in free agency.

Monk was nearly a 20+ points per game scorer this past season as a member of the Sacramento Kings, notching 17.2 points per contest in 65 outings. However, the former lottery pick struggled with his three-point shot in Year 8, as he only recorded a 32.5% long-range shooting percentage.

Despite this staunch belief in Kuminga's ability, however, the Warriors also won't pay him like you would a player you project to have star potential. The offer on the table remains a two-year, $45 million contract with a team option in the second year that asks Kuminga to waive his implied no-trade clause for having just a one year guarantee.
