Andre Iguodala staying in the now in second go-around with Warriors

Solid performance in start Kuminga accumulated 18 points (8-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist over 18 minutes during Saturday's 142-112 win over the Grizzlies in Game 3 of the series.

Impact Although Kuminga saw light run in a starting role, he rose to the occasion as Gary Payton's (elbow) replacement in the blowout win. His 6-foot-7 frame gives Golden State's undersized lineup an added dimension, and with Payton out indefinitely, Kuminga will likely continue to hold down a spot on the top unit.

Starting for injured Payton Kuminga will start Saturday's Game 3 against the Grizzlies, C.J. Holmes of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact With Gary Payton suffering a fractured elbow, coach Steve Kerr will opt to start Kuminga while still bringing Jordan Poole off the bench for a spark in the second unit. Kuminga hasn't seen more than 15 minutes in any playoff game, but he figures to garner a bigger workload in this situation. In his 12 starts this season, he's averaged 12.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 24.3 minutes.

Impact The rookie continues to look good when given the opportunity to shine. After playing only nine combined minutes over the Warriors' previous two games, Kuminga saw extended action off the bench with Otto Porter and Klay Thompson resting. Across the 18 games this season in which he's played at least 25 minutes, Kuminga is averaging 17.6 points, 5.9 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.8 steals, 0.8 blocks and 1.3 threes.

Moves to bench Kuminga will come off the bench Wednesday against the Suns.

Impact The rookie first-round pick started the past four games and averaged 11.3 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 23.3 minutes, but Draymond Green and Kevon Looney will start in the frontcourt Wednesday. Kuminga should still be included in the rotation off the bench.

Posts strong line as starter Kuminga amassed 15 points (4-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 7-10 FT), seven rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal across 35 minutes during Monday's 123-95 loss to the Grizzlies.

Impact Kuminga made his fourth straight start for the Warriors and put together his best all-around performance over that stretch, leading the team in both rebounds and assists. The rookie forward didn't shoot the ball well but did get to the line 10 times, converting seven of his attempts. Kuminga bounced back from a two-game stretch during which he averaged just 4.0 points and went a combined 2-for-11 from the field.

Rookie Kuminga developing before Warriors' eyes: 'Every game he's getting better' Jonathan Kuminga’s season-long progression was on fully display Wednesday against the Miami Heat.

MARCH 25, 2022 • MERCURYNEWS.COM

Productive in spot start Kuminga fouled out of Wednesday's 118-104 victory over the Heat after recording 22 points (9-17 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-8 FT), five rebounds and one assist across 30 minutes.

Impact Kuminga shifted into the starting lineup with Draymond Green given the night off as the Warriors continue to manage his return from injury. It was a productive night for the rookie, who scored at least 20 points for just the fifth time this season. Kuminga has been able to flash some intriguing upside thus far, but on most nights, the playing time just isn't there when it comes to standard league viability.

Double-double off bench Kuminga chipped in 14 points (6-16 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and one block over 28 minutes during Saturday's 122-109 victory over the Bucks.

Impact It's the rookie's second double-double of the season, with the first coming Jan. 18 in a spot start against the Pistons. Kuminga has been a solid addition to the Warriors' bench, and over his last 10 games he's averaging 14.6 points, 4.9 boards, 1.5 threes and 1.4 assists in 23.9 minutes.
