Lakers rival still refusing to admit obvious trade deadline mistake

After dragging out the Jonathan Kuminga situation for longer than it had any business going, the Golden State Warriors pulled the plug before the trade deadline. The deal they ultimately got for holding onto their young talent for so long was incredibly underwhelming.

Kristaps Porzingis ended up being the big prize for finally ending the Kuminga saga in Golden State. Even if Porzingis did not have the unfortunate health issues that he did, it was still a lackluster return. What has made it look even worse is just how well Kuminga has played with the Atlanta Hawks.
