ClutchPoints reporter Brett Siegel wrote an article today about the situation of Kumingga and Gidi.

According to Brett Siegel, in the early stages of the free market before the start of the summer league, the Warriors and the Bulls did negotiate on Kumingga's first signing and then exchange, but sources from both teams confirmed that the negotiations have never progressed to the formal quotation stage, and the Warriors have never actively pursued Gidedi. The Bulls and Warriors have never negotiated on the sign-on and then exchange of Gidey and Kumingga, which is a huge salary matching problem for both teams.

In the regular season of the 2024-25 season, Kumingga played 47 games, averaging 24.3 minutes per game, scoring 15.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists; in the playoffs, Kumingga played 8 games, averaging 23.4 minutes per game, scoring 15.3 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game. Giddy played 70 regular season games for the Bulls, averaging 30.2 minutes per game, scoring 14.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, 7.2 assists and 1.2 steals, with a three-point shooting percentage of 37.8%.
