Devin Carter Rumors

Sacramento previously offered second-year guard Devin Carter, big man Dario Šarić and two second-round picks to the Warriors, sources told NBC Sports California. But even after the Kings revised their offer, it appears the Warriors still aren't moved by Sacramento's offer or any other proposed to them thus far.

Kuminga wants a fresh start with a new team and the Warriors have given him reason to question their commitment to him. He likes the opportunity the Kings have presented, but the Warriors seem unwilling to accept a package featuring Devin Carter, Dario Saric and draft compensation, which could a protected first-round pick or multiple second-round picks. The Warriors would probably be quick to pull the trigger on a deal involving Keegan Murray or Keon Ellis. However, a source with knowledge of trade conversations told The Sacramento Bee that Murray and Ellis have not been discussed and both are considered off limits in talks for Kuminga.

Jonathan Kuminga, one of the marquee names remaining on the market, has been frequently linked to the Kings over the last several months, and recently met with Scott Perry and Doug Christie. The Kuminga to Sacramento rumors have taken many different forms, including a sign-and-trade. Sam Amick addressed the situation on the Warriors Plus Minus podcast today. There, Amick reported that the Warriors “weren’t interested in Carter or DeRozan. As of a couple weeks ago, the Kings weren’t willing to pay Kuminga into the $20 million range (AAV).”

Matt George: On the Kings/Russell Westbrook front: Both parties have been talking and have had mutual interest since free agency began. That's been well known. From what I gather, the Kings are still looking to move a player like Devin Carter or Malik Monk before they can bring Westbrook in. The Kings have a log jam at the guard position and very little financial flexibility to work with.

Sacramento Kings guard Devin Carter is well aware that his name has been discussed in trade talks for Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga. Carter addressed the trade rumors for the first time Monday after Sacramento’s summer league team held its first practice at Golden 1 Center. Asked how he is processing the speculation and uncertainty, Carter mentioned his father, Anthony Carter, who spent 12 years in the NBA with the Miami Heat, San Antonio Spurs, Minnesota Timberwolves, Denver Nuggets, New York Knicks and Toronto Raptors. “My pops played for 13 years,” Carter said. “He’s been traded a lot. I just talk to him about how he handled it. That will stay between us, what me and my pops be talking about, but I just come in to work every day, obviously thankful for the opportunity to be here, show up with a ready-to-work mentality all the time, and it is what it is. It’s a business.”
