Owner Joe Lacob says it would “take a lot” for the Warriors not to match an offer sheet for Jonathan Kuminga this offseason.

Lacob made it clear on The TK Show that he’s a big believer in Kuminga and that losing him would be tough. As a restricted free agent, Kuminga can sign with other teams but the Warriors can match. And from the sound of it, they’re ready to.

Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob has made his stance unmistakably clear: Jonathan Kuminga isn’t going anywhere without a fight. Speaking candidly on The TK Show this week, Lacob reaffirmed his confidence in the young forward, emphasizing just how much the organization values Kuminga’s potential.

As Kuminga enters restricted free agency, speculation has swirled about whether another team might swoop in with a lucrative offer. Under league rules, Kuminga can sign an offer sheet with any team, but the Warriors have the right to match it and retain him. According to Lacob, that’s exactly what they intend to do.

“It would take a lot for us not to match any offer for Jonathan,” Lacob declared. “We believe in him. He’s a big part of our future, and losing him would be very tough for us.”

Kuminga, who has shown flashes of brilliance and athleticism since being drafted by the Warriors, is considered one of the franchise’s most promising young talents. His development over the past season has only strengthened the front office’s resolve to keep him in the Bay Area.

Lacob’s comments sent a strong message to both Kuminga and the rest of the league: the Warriors are ready to do whatever it takes to keep their rising star. For fans, it’s a reassuring sign that the team remains committed to building for both the present and the future.

As free agency approaches, all eyes will be on Kuminga and the Warriors’ next move. But with Lacob’s public backing, it seems clear that Golden State has every intention of matching any offer that comes their way—no matter the price.
