Where Jonathan Kuminga ends ?

LOL, I should have guessed who bumped this thread ^^^^

JK is coming for all the doubters and haters!

Off to a great start, 23yo and just scratching the surface!

Auditioning for his next team.

Fools gold.

Disagree. I was a JK hater before the season but he has made a leap. Watch the games. His passing, rebounding, decision making are all improved. He shows better awareness of how to play within the Warriors system. Jimmy has been mentoring him. I don't think Warriors will trade JK this year. We need his size and athleticism on the wing. Kerr will keep him in the starting lineup. JK is getting what he always wanted, and he is producing. If he has a great season, the front office can rip up his current deal and then extend him. It's not as far fetched as you might think.

Nah things are clicking for him, I think he has taken a step. 10 rebounds last night! and 25 points. He is sticking in the starting lineup, if you haven't watched his whole progression you might not be able to see it at all. Quicker decisions, knows where shooters are on drive & kicks, fighting hard for rebounds.

I think spending time with/watching Jimmy has helped him be willing to re-shape his game.

I have only seen him against POR in a blowout loss. He did play better than expected.

He has 12 more rebounds after the first 4 games of the season than he did in all of the playoffs last season. The biggest issues with him in the past have shown improvement in the first few games (decision making, rebounding).

Its still early, but got to give credit so far..he has a starting role with big minutes and has been producing both on the stat sheet and impact wise.

I wonder if he continues to have this role if he even wants to get traded anymore..yea its hard to earn a starting spot on a veteran team, but now that he has..playing with the gravity and getting some basically freebie assists from feeding steph, along with the playmaking from butler and dray plus the help defensively they provide..it just makes his life easier once he started to figure out how to play with them.
