Updated · 2026–27 season

Jonathan Kuminga is on the books for $6,064,000 in 2026–27, the 8th largest cap hit on the Minnesota Timberwolves roster and 2.7% of the team's $222.0M payroll.

That ranks 234th among the 442 players with a 2026–27 salary on the books, and eats 3.7% of the $165.0M salary cap.

The deal has 2 seasons left on it, running through 2027-28, worth $12,431,200 in guaranteed money.

The money climbs as it goes: $6,064,000 in the first year up to $6,367,200 in the last, a 5% rise across the deal.

Not every year is locked in: 2027-28 player option.

The option year belongs to the player, not the team — he decides whether to take the money or return to the market, so the team cannot count on it either way.

He is the 8th highest-paid of the 14 players on the roster, in the middle of the pay structure.

He is one of 14 players on the Minnesota Timberwolves' books for 2026–27, whose 2026–27 salaries add up to $222,018,846.

Minnesota Timberwolves sit at $222.0M in payroll and are currently classified Tax Payer, with -$14.8M of room below the first apron.
