Yahoo Sports: A Fan's Oasis

Legendary rapper and Golden State Warriors superfan E-40 is urging the team's management to keep Jonathan Kuminga and Andrew Wiggins at the NBA trade deadline. Known for his unwavering support of the Warriors, E-40 took to social media to express his desire for the team to hold onto the talented duo. With the trade deadline fast approaching, E-40's message is sure to resonate with fans and decision-makers alike. As a respected figure in the Bay Area and a vocal advocate for the team, E-40's words carry weight among the Warriors faithful. His plea to retain Kuminga and Wiggins highlights the importance of stability and continuity in a team's roster, especially as the Warriors gear up for a playoff push. Only time will tell if E-40's message will be heeded, but one thing is certain – the Warriors have a loyal and passionate supporter in the hip-hop icon.

The Ambassador of the Bay has made his thoughts on the Warriors' future clear.

Jonathan Kuminga shouldn't go anywhere.

After Kuminga dropped 34 points for the second consecutive night in Golden State's 109-105 win over the Phoenix Suns, rapper E-40 posted the following message on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Do not trade @JonathanKuming6 @22wiggins Nor me! @warriors

Though Kuminga has been a frequent subject of trade talks given his lack of past consistency and a future contract, the longtime Warriors fan wants his squad to keep its 22-year-old potential future star.

It's hard to disagree with 40 Water, especially following another dominant Kuminga performance to prevent the Warriors from dipping below a .500 record.

Andrew Wiggins didn't have nearly as spectacular of a showing, but E-40 asserted his preference to stand pat with the veteran wing despite some similar inconsistencies.

And, last but not least, the beloved Bay Area rapper doesn't want to be traded, either -- not that Dub Nation would ever let that happen anyways.

Will Warriors general manager Mike Dunleavy heed the advice of Charlie Hustle? Time will only tell.
