Team Note: Horford & Melton is not in a hurry at the moment, but if it is delayed until September, the situation may be more difficult to control
According to previous reports, the Warriors and Horford, Melton and other players reached an intention to sign the contract, but they had to wait until Kumingga's renewal was resolved before signing the contract. Since Kumingga's contract renewal has not made any progress, the free agent signing has also been stuck.
Today, ESPN Warriors joined the team reporter Anthony Slater to participate in ESPN's "NBA Today" program and talked about Horford and Melton's current attitudes.
He said: "Actually, we have been talking about those names in the past six or seven weeks. It's obvious that if Horford can be signed, he will become the starting center of the Warriors. Anthony Melton is also a player they are optimistic about. Seth Curry, and their second-round rookie Will Richard, I originally expected him to be on the roster. In addition, there is Gary Payton II. But as you mentioned just now, these operations are waiting for the dust to settle for Cumingga."
"But according to mine They know the current situation and the complexity, and they don't care about this stagnation because the camp will be open for a while. But I have to say that in August, everyone can easily say 'When we have time to deal with your business'. But by September, the whole situation will begin to become a little tricky. By then, I'm not sure if the negotiations will progress, nor if the Warriors or Kumingga will be more anxious, but at this time of September, the situation may become more difficult to control."
