The Golden State Warriors may have some trouble giving this contract.
Handing out max contracts with the new CBA isn't the same as it used to be in the NBA. Teams like the LA Clippers have seen star players like Paul George completely walk away because they didn't want to go over the second apron by giving a max.
For the Golden State Warriors, who already have a lot of money committed to veterans like Steph Curry and Draymond Green, adding another max player becomes even more difficult. That said, this may be the situation they find themselves in with young forward Jonathan Kuminga.

It's really hard to get that number. That's what the agent has to do in that scenario."
What is also problematic for Golden State, is that Kuminga has not shown for extended stretches of play that he is a max-level player. This is largely due to his role fluctuating so frequently under Steve Kerr, but it is a reality the Warriors have to deal with.
