Famous reporter: The Warriors were ready to choose Jidi in the 21st draft, but the Thunder did not choose Kumingga

reporter Jake Fischer reported that after the Bulls were unwilling to give Gidey a contract of 30 million yuan in annual salary, the Warriors contacted Gidey's camp and expressed their interest in him.

It is understood that the Warriors had become interested in Gidedy as early as the 2021 draft. At that time, the Warriors wanted to use the No. 7 draw to choose Kumingga, but many people thought that the Thunder would use the No. 6 draw to choose Kumingga first. The Warriors were originally ready to choose Gidey if they couldn't choose Kumingga, but the Thunder chose Gidey first. The Warriors were very happy to accept Kumingga.
