The Warriors reportedly missed a key reinforcement goal in the offseason in Kumingga s contract renewal deadlock

According to Charlie Walker, a reporter from the US sports media NBA analysis network. The Golden State Warriors are predicted to miss a key offseason goal, which will sign with their Western Conference rivals.

The Golden State Warriors have not yet left neutral in the offseason. They are still not close to reaching a deal with Jonathan Cuminggar and no free agent signing will be made until the renewal farce story is resolved. The Warriors have offered Cuminga a two-year, $45 million contract, but their young star seems unintentional to renew his contract with the team, which he believes is hindering his growth.

Currently, the Warriors' incoming free agents have reached a verbal agreement with the Golden State Warriors, and they are content to wait for a solution. But other teams are free to offer better offers, meaning the Warriors may miss their free agents while waiting for Cuminga’s contract decision. The Warriors predict that they will miss Malcolm Brogden, who may sign with Western Conference opponents

The Warriors are linked to Brogden this offseason, but Fisher reported online in Stein that they are waiting for Kumingga's settlement before starting serious negotiations.

Fisher wrote, "We won't know if the Warriors have a stronger interest in Brogdon until the Warriors have developed a stronger interest in Brogdon after the fate of Cuminga is resolved and the subsequent signing issues are resolved.

Brogdon, the previous Rookie of the Year and the Sixth Man of the Year of 2023, will be a suitable replacement for Cuminga, but it is predicted that he will sign with the Timberwolves as the Warriors wait.

Eric Pincus wrote for BleacherReport, "There are several teams that can seek help at the defenders, such as the Timberwolves, the Warriors, the Kings and the Knicks." Prediction: Brogden joins the Timberwolves to support Mike Conley.

The Warriors' free agents are predicted to become impatient in September, which will be the first domino to fall. If this signing happens, will Horford and Melton and others follow suit? The Minnesota Timberwolves are the forgotten team in the West

that said fans have forgotten a team that has reached the Western Conference Finals for two consecutive seasons, which sounds ridiculous, but the Timberwolves seem to be the neglected team in the West.

They did not make a sensation in the offseason like the Houston Rockets did, signing Durant. They didn’t make headlines with big money re-signing like the Thunder did.

Instead, they do their own thing quietly, re-signing key figures like Randall and Reed, and preparing to start over. Under Edwards, they cannot be ignored.

They have lost in the Western Conference Finals for two consecutive seasons, first to Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks, and then to the final champion Thunder. However, if they continue to rush, they are likely to succeed.

Brogden will be an important addition to the Wolves, who have been struggling for backcourt depth in recent seasons. This caused Edwards to be exhausted at the end of the season.

If they can beat the Warriors who were eliminated last season's playoffs and become the sixth man of the year before, the Thunder may start to turn a blind eye to Minnesota.
