Despite coming off a less-than-stellar season, Jonathan Kuminga is still one of the biggest NBA free agents remaining on the market. He has been heavily linked to both the Los Angeles Lakers and Cleveland Cavaliers over the past week. It is likely he lands with one of those teams, but which one will be better for his fantasy value?
The Case For The Los Angeles Lakers
Kuminga brings size and athleticism and should fit well on the same court with Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves. We have learned that he is much better as a third-option type of player rather than a top option in an offense.
The fit in Los Angeles should be strong both for him and the team. It would be intriguing to see him attacking the basket with all the attention being paid to the guards in Los Angeles, and it should help him produce more like he did with the Golden State Warriors before last season, when he split time with the Warriors and Atlanta Hawks.
