Pacific Division
Sacramento Kings
Bargain contract: Keegan Murray
Murray was selected fourth overall in the 2022 NBA Draft and proved to be an immediate contributor for the emerging Kings. Like the Kings, Murray has had a few bumps this season but he still has a clear value going forward with two years remaining on his rookie-scale deal.
Nightmare contract: Kevin Huerter
To Sacramento's credit, they don't really have any awful contracts but if I had to choose, Kevin Huerter's would seem to be the next closest option. Huerter has seen both his numbers and his role diminish but is still owed $34 million for the next two seasons, causing some concern about his value going forward.
Golden State Warriors
Bargain contract: Jonathan Kuminga
It took a while but third-year forward Jonathan Kuminga is finally living up to his potential and has helped the Warriors get back on track as they look to make a playoff push. He is still on his rookie contract through next season and is a clear bargain for the expensive Warriors.
Nightmare contract: Andrew Wiggins
After signing an extension last season, the Warriors wing hasn't been the same player and has fallen off drastically this season. That is definitely concerning since he is owed $84 million over the next three seasons and it looks like he won't live up to that deal.
