""I don't think anyone is winning a championship the first few days of practice," Draymond Green said."
""We respect the [negotiation] process," Curry said. "When he's here, ready to work, we expect him to be locked in on doing what he needs to do to help us win.""
""Like I tell everybody that ask me -- not even in the media, random people, my friends: 'I'm not into all that,'" Butler said. "I hope it gets resolved. I've been in this league going on 15 years now. It will get handled. I know that both sides will be happy in the end. We all love JK.""
Jonathan Kuminga remains unsigned as the Warriors prepare for their first practice, and his absence prevents Al Horford and De'Anthony Melton from finalizing contracts. The Warriors have offered Kuminga a two-year, $45 million deal and a three-year, $75.2 million deal, both containing a team option on the final season; Kuminga has rejected those offers because of the team option. Kuminga is seeking a more player-friendly contract or a possible sign-and-trade, while the Warriors have suppressed trade talks and signaled they will not improve offers. Kuminga's one-year $8 million qualifying offer expires Wednesday at 11:59 p.m. ET; accepting it would provide an inherent no-trade clause but would require giving up $15.3 million next season. Veteran players expressed confidence that early distractions will not derail championship aspirations for the aging core.
