Jonathan Kuminga News, Rumors, Updates - Golden State Warriors | FOX Sports

Leads team with 21 points Kuminga ended Tuesday's 112-97 win over the Clippers with 21 points (7-12 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds and six assists across 26 minutes.

Impact Kuminga came off the bench and posted the team's best scoring total. He's continuing a great run of production and has been one of the most impressive rookies after the All-Star break. Draymond Green's return is imminent, but while he is out, Kuminga's minutes should continue to make him a relevant part of the offense.

Efficient shooting effort Saturday Kuminga finished with 18 points (7-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-3 FT), five rebounds and two steals across 29 minutes during Saturday's 124-116 loss to the Lakers.

Impact Kuminga picked up some of the slack for the Warriors on offense as both Klay Thompson and Andrew Wiggins struggled from the field. The rookie finished with his highest scoring total since Feb. 12 thanks to an efficient 7-for-10 shooting line. Golden State has decided to rest Stephen Curry, Thompson and Wiggins for Monday's game against Denver, so Kuminga could be in store for more than his usual minutes.

Scores 17 off bench Kuminga ended Thursday's 132-95 win over Portland with 17 points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 10-12 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 27 minutes.

Impact Kuminga had started three of the Warriors' last four games prior to the All-Star break, but he was back in a reserve role for the first game of the second half. That didn't limit his impact, as the rookie forward finished with double-digit points for his ninth straight contest. Over that stretch, he is averaging 15.4 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.0 three-pointers, giving him some low-end appeal in fantasy leagues.

Excels in another start Kuminga recorded 18 points (8-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds and one block in 25 minutes during Saturday's 117-115 victory over the Lakers.

Impact Otto Porter -- who missed Thursday's contest to rest -- was back in action Saturday, but the Warriors elected to play him in a reserve role and give Kuminga another start. The rookie played only one more minute than Porter but was by far the better performer, going an efficient 8-for-11 from the field and falling one board shy of a double-double. With the Warriors looking to limit Porter's minutes, it appears that Kuminga may see more starts moving forward, per Shayna Rubin of The Mercury News.

Rookie Report: Jonathan Kuminga notches fifth straight game with double-figures in scoring on Thursday vs. Knicks In a start against the Knicks, Warriors rookie Jonathan Kuminga tallied his fifth consecutive contest with double-figures in scoring.

FEBRUARY 12, 2022 • USATODAY.COM

Shines in place of Porter Kuminga totaled 17 points (5-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 36 minutes Thursday in the Warriors' 116-114 loss to the Knicks.

Impact Kuminga took advantage of Otto Porter (rest) sitting out the second leg of the back-to-back set, entering the starting five while matching his season high in minutes. The rookie's playing time will likely take a hit when both Porter and Klay Thompson are presumably available for standalone games Saturday versus the Lakers and Monday versus the Clippers, but Andre Iguodala's (back) uncertain status could be enough for Kuminga to retain a 20-plus-minute role off the bench. Over his last five games, Kuminga hasn't played less than 23 minutes on any occasion while averaging 16.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.2 three-pointers.

Set to start Thursday Kuminga will start Thursday against the Knicks, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Francisco reports.

Impact Kuminga will make his fifth start of the season Thursday, with Otto Porter (rest) and Draymond Green (back) both out. The rookie should see an increased role in his start with only Nemanja Bjelica behind him in the depth chart. Expect Kuminga to revert back to the bench once Porter or Green can return.

Provides support off bench Kuminga finished with 16 points (6-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-7 FT), four rebounds and four assists across 23 minutes Monday in the Warriors' 110-98 win over the Thunder.

Impact The returns of Otto Porter (back) and Andre Iguodala (hip) from multi-game absences was expected to result in a smaller role for Kuminga, but the rookie end up clearing the 20-minute mark for the third game in a row with the Warriors electing to limit Porter and with Iguodala exiting due to back tightness after playing only six minutes. With a back-to-back set Wednesday and Thursday versus the Jazz and Knicks on tap next for the Warriors, one or more of Porter, Iguodala or Klay Thompson is likely to sit due to rest or injury for either or both of those contests, so Kuminga should continue to benefit from elevated playing time in the short term. The rookie is averaging 17.7 points (on 61.1 percent shooting from the field), 4.7 boards and 2.7 assists during this most recent three-game stretch.

Helps pick up slack Tuesday Kuminga put up 19 points (8-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one block across 29 minutes Tuesday in the Warriors' 124-120 win over the Spurs.

Impact Golden State was without eight players due to rest or injury for the second half of the back-to-back set, paving the way for several fringe members of the rotation to take on heightened roles. Kuminga and fellow first-round pick Moses Moody were two of the players to take advantage of the extra playing time and usage, with the duo combining for 39 points on 14-for-27 shooting from the field. Kuminga has occasionally flashed the ability to turn in these type of scoring performances during his rookie season, but it bears mentioning that he averaged 3.0 points on 26.7 percent shooting from the field over 13.0 minutes per game over Golden State's prior three contests. Expect Kuminga's playing time to move closer to that level against the Kings on Thursday, when the Warriors could have all of Klay Thompson (rest), Stephen Curry (toe), Andrew Wiggins (knee), Otto Porter (foot) and Nemanja Bjelica (back) available.

Poor outing in win Kuminga closed Monday's 122-108 win over the Rockets with three points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and one steal in 11 minutes.

Impact While Kuminga's minutes were trending up, he's now averaged only 10.5 minutes over the past two games. His 11 minutes of court time was even more striking without Otto Porter (foot) in the lineup. Kuminga will lose most of his fantasy value if his usage stays at this level.
