Mitchell defends much bigger than his size, and I bet you will see Sacramento roll out three-guard lineups, which seem very effective in the League these days, given the modern rules - Houston for example was very effective with their three-guard lineups.
Poole is the backup Curry. That fits extremely well.
Where does Mitchell fit? We have Curry, Klay and Poole as pure guards. You have Wiggins also taking guard minutes. And at the time Mulder, Lee, Payton, Jessup, and Nico were all options. You can play a 3 guard unit a little bit, but whats the long term play here? We take an undersized PG at 7 with the hopes that he becomes the 4th guard, maybe 3rd?

Smallball five?
Dont care what position you call it. Role is more important, and he takes over the isolation scoring role on the bench mob

That's ridiculous. Unlike Kuminga, Steph never had the natural tools. Hopefully Kuminga will work as hard as Steph does, and be as dedicated to his craft as Steph is.
I think the Athletic write up is ridiculous to be honest. Kuminga has little team D experience but he looked very good in SL, and questioning the effort doesnt line up. Those GLeague games were horrible to watch, as the only player who actually thrived was Green, and that was just relative to everyone else. No one looked good on defense there because there was no system, and there was no hiding weaknesses like college teams do for their players
