Lakers reportedly hit roadblock with $46M ex-Warriors NBA champion despite mutual interest

The Los Angeles Lakers have been searching for a starting wing to replace LeBron James, who informed the organization he would not be returning after eight seasons. The Lakers identified Jonathan Kuminga, a former Golden State Warriors NBA champion with a $46 million valuation, as their top target. However, despite mutual interest between the two parties, the Lakers have hit a significant roadblock in completing a deal for the free agent wing.
