Cole, talk about Melton, Kumingga, and also talk about his contract!

Basketball

Recently, Warriors head coach Cole talked about the defender Melton who returned to the team, and also about the newly renewed contract. He talked about his contract for the remaining one year and expressed his "views"!

In the offseason in 2024, Melton signed a "$12.8 million a year" contract with the Warriors, but only played 6 games. The 27-year-old defender suffered a "tearing injury of the ACL in the left knee" and caused a "season reimbursement". Not long ago, the Warriors issued a "two-year minimum salary contract, the second year is the player option", and averaged 10.3 points per game last season. Warriors head coach Kerr said that Melton is currently Dun will not participate in team training, but will only conduct personal training. His recovery progress is very good, but he will not play games immediately. He needs to conduct systematic training first. I hope that he can meet the requirements in rehabilitation and control of the game rhythm in the next period, so that he can come back as soon as possible in the season. All this depends on his recovery progress. Last season, Melton only played the game briefly. He showed the strong "adaptation, both offense and defense" that you have received. The team will give him enough time to recover. The "deadline for renewal" between Kumingga and the Warriors finally ended before the start of the season. Kumingga finally accepted a 1+1 contract, which still includes team options. The Warriors paid a certain amount of extra "salary" but took the initiative in player trading. This dispute can be said to be "no winner". Kerr talked about Kumingga's contract. He said that this situation is "part of the business". It is understandable that after Kumingga completed the renewal, Kerr said that he had a good personal relationship with Kumingga, and he believed that Kumingga was not the kind of person who "brought the team down when he came in." Kumingga completed his contract renewal. In the past four seasons, in Kerr's "tactical system", he has come and go as a rotating player. Kerr said he will have a long talk with Kumingga to make him better. Last season, Kumingga performed well during the playoffs, but after experiencing the "contract renewal storm", I believe that both sides are just "surface harmony". What kind of "tactical status" can Komingga give Kumingga a "trade" in the new season? Can this former "No. 7 pick" truly play to prove his strength, and leave these questions to the game to answer.

Cole and the Warriors have one year left for coaching contract. General Manager Dunleavy talked about Cole's contract renewal at the press conference. He made it clear that "I hope Cole can come back, I hope he stays here for a long time, or he wants to stay as long as he wants. The team will give him a chance, and as long as he says we will stay, so we will let it go." The team expressed its attitude. Last season, the Warriors and Cole reached a "two-year, $35 million" contract renewal. After the new season, the contract expired. Cole also said that he did not want to negotiate a contract renewal in the middle of the season. He would wait until the end of the season to make an overall assessment. Everything would go with the flow. From the 2014 to 2015 season, Cole led the Warriors to the finals 6 times and won the championship 4 times. There is no doubt about his ability. I believe that the cooperation between the two sides is pleasant, and renewal is naturally "natural". The Warriors achieved comprehensive reinforcement from the inside, the defense line, and the front line, but the main players are old, have "many hidden dangers" in injuries, and have high physical pressure. Can Cole successfully adjust the lineup? Does the Warriors still have a chance to "return to the peak"? What do fans think?
