Updated · 2026-27 season

Jonathan Kuminga is on the books for $6,064,000 in 2026-27, the 7th largest cap hit on the Minnesota Timberwolves roster and 2.8% of the team's $213.3M payroll.

That ranks 232nd among the 435 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 7th 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 $213,345,684.
