The Athletic's Eric Koreen feels the Golden State Warriors' decision to extend a qualifying offer to restricted free agent Jonathan Kuminga has more to do with team-friendly RFA rules than with a desire to keep the forward in the Bay Area.

The Warriors continue to stand strong on their stance to retain Jonathan Kuminga amid strong sign-and-trade interest from the Kings & Suns.

Jonathan Kuminga reportedly wants to join the Sacramento Kings. The restricted free agent has met with Kings brass, and they have offered him a starting role, according to ESPN's Marc Spears.
