Warriors Firm on Keeping Kuminga Amid Trade Rumors and Siakam Talks

The Toronto Raptors are considering trade options for Pascal Siakam, but a deal seems unlikely as the Golden State Warriors are not willing to trade Jonathan Kuminga, a player the Raptors are interested in. The Sacramento Kings have also backed out of talks, unwilling to trade Keegan Murray or offer Siakam a max contract. Indiana Pacers could be a fit, but their offer doesn't meet Toronto's demands. With the trade deadline approaching, Toronto faces the challenge of potentially losing Siakam in free agency without getting value in return, but they are not prepared to trade him just for the sake of it.
