JONATHAN KUMINGA NEWS

Sees playing time fall Kuminga notched 10 points (4-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist over 18 minutes during Wednesday's 118-112 victory over the Celtics.

Impact Kuminga's minutes noticeably diminished, but it didn't prevent him from scoring in double figures for a sixth straight appearance. It seems the Warriors are content with continuing to utilize 22-year-old off the bench for the time being, especially after securing a victory Wednesday night against the defending champions. Kuminga has held down a reserve role in Golden State's last five games.

Will come off bench again Kuminga won't start Saturday's game against the Rockets.

Impact Kuminga will come off the bench for a third straight game. However, he's been more productive as a reserve. Over the last two games, Kuminga has totaled 33 points (12-25 FG), seven rebounds, five assists, three steals and a block.

Posts 16 points from bench Kuminga logged 16 points (6-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 27 minutes during Wednesday's 104-89 win over the Pelicans.

Impact Kuminga would have been a logical choice to enjoy an increased role with Stephen Curry (ankle) and Andrew Wiggins (back) sidelined, but coach Steve Kerr seemed to have other plans. After starting the first three games of the season, Kuminga came off the bench during the two-game stint against the Pelicans. Kerr probably made the move after some shooting struggles impaired his bottom line, but Kuminga has righted the ship over the past two contests.

Moved to bench Tuesday Kuminga has been moved to the bench for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Kuminga has been relegated to the second unit after a disappointing start to the season regarding his efficiency (33.3 percent from the field, 58.3 percent from the free throw line, 11.1 percent from three). Moses Moody appears to be starting in place of Kuminga.

Stuffs stat sheet Sunday Kuminga finished with 12 points (4-10 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-6 FT), five rebounds, one assist and three steals across 22 minutes during Sunday's 112-104 loss to the Clippers.

Impact Kuminga did a solid job as a do-it-all player, making his presence felt on the glass and as a defensive presence despite his shooting woes. However, the Warriors need him to be more consistent as a scorer, especially with Stephen Curry (ankle) set to miss some time following his injury Sunday. Through three games, Kuminga is averaging just 8.0 points per game while shooting a meager 33.3 percent from the floor and 11.1 percent from beyond the arc.

Inefficient in blowout win Kuminga totaled 10 points (3-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block over 20 minutes during Wednesday's 139-104 win over the Trail Blazers.

Impact Despite starting, Kuminga logged just 20 minutes Wednesday as the Warriors had amassed a hefty lead by the end of the third quarter. With Klay Thompson leaving for Dallas in free agency, Kuminga is expected to establish himself as one of Golden State's top scoring options behind Stephen Curry this season.

Looks good in Friday's start Kuminga scored a team-high 17 points (7-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 F) while adding four rebounds in 19 minutes during Friday's 132-74 preseason win over the Lakers.

Impact Los Angeles rested all of their usual rotation players in the preseason finale, so Kuminga didn't face much competition when he was on the court. The fourth-year forward still put together a good showing as he looks to solidify his starting spot at the four for Golden State. The Warriors need someone to step up in the absence of Klay Thompson, who's now a Maverick, and Kuminga will be one of the younger players the team looks to for added production.

Strong night off bench Friday Kuminga scored 19 points (5-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 6-10 FT) while adding seven rebounds and an assist in 27 minutes off the bench during Friday's 109-106 preseason win over the Kings.

Impact Kyle Anderson got the start at power forward for the Warriors in this one but didn't make much of an impact in 18 minutes, while Kuminga led the team in rebounding and finished second in scoring behind Moses Moody's 23. When the regular season begins, Kuminga will almost certainly be Golden State's starting four as he looks to build on a breakout 2023-24 campaign that saw him set career highs with 16.1 points, 4.8 boards and 2.2 assists over 74 regular-season games.

OCTOBER 12 • ROTOWIRE

Coming off bench Friday Kuminga will play a reserve role in Friday's preseason contest against the Kings, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Impact Golden State continues to shuffle its starting lineup around in the third exhibition game of the season. Kuminga compiled 16 points (6-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 0-2 FT), two rebounds and an assist across 20 minutes in Wednesday's 122-112 win over the Kings, and he is seemingly a lock for the starting lineup once the regular-season tips off. However, Gary Payton will get the starting nod in Friday's game.

Converts four beyond the arc in win Kuminga tallied 16 points (6-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 0-2 FT), two rebounds and an assist across 20 minutes in Wednesday's 122-112 win over the Kings.

Impact Kuminga appears to have a firm hold as the starter at the four for the Warriors, although Andrew Wiggins and newly-acquired Kyle Anderson will also compete for playing time. On paper, Kuminga's skill set is a bit more diverse, with the ability to stretch the floor via a keen perimeter shot while also tending to duties in the frontcourt.

Grabs seven boards Saturday Kuminga totaled seven points (3-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal across 19 minutes in Saturday's 91-90 preseason win over the Clippers.

Impact Kuminga's 19 minutes of on-court time Saturday were most of the Warriors' starting five. The 2021 first-round pick is expected to step into a larger role on offense next to Stephen Curry after Klay Thompson left for Dallas in free agency. Across 74 regular-season games (46 starts) in 2023, Kuminga averaged a career-high 16.1 points on 52.9 percent shooting along with 4.8 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.5 blocks over 26.4 minutes per game.
