Another strong Summer League game Kuminga posted 29 points (11-22 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 5-8 FT), two rebounds, one steal and one block in 27 minutes during Tuesday's Summer League loss to the Celtics.
Impact Kuminga has posted 57 points across his past two Summer League appearances. The cherry on top of the second-year pro's performance was that he committed only one turnover. It's possible Golden State will consider sitting him out of caution for the remainder of exhibition play.

Puts up 28 points in Vegas Kuminga finished Sunday's Las Vegas Summer League game against the Spurs with 28 points (10-22 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 7-18 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and one block in 26 minutes.
Impact After struggling against the Knicks on Friday (four points, 2-10 FG), Kuminga bounced back in a big way, serving as the clear alpha dog for the Warriors with Moses Moody sitting out. While he struggled at the line and committed five turnovers, Kuminga took over late in the game and hit what ended up being the game-winning free throw with under 10 seconds remaining.

Strong effort off bench Kuminga racked up 17 points (5-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-8 FT), eight rebounds and one assist across 22 minutes during Tuesday's 119-109 loss to Dallas in Game 4 of the Western Conference...
Impact Kuminga was one of the most productive players for Golden State in this loss, as he ended just two boards away from posting a double-double and finished as the team's second-highest scorer despite playing slightly over 20 minutes. This was the first time Kuminga scored in double digits off the bench during the current playoff run, but it's worth noting he has done that in three of his last five appearances overall.

Back to bench Kuminga will return to a reserve role for Friday's Game 6 against the Grizzlies, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Kuminga will be replaced in the starting lineup by Kevon Looney. He has averaged 10.0 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.0 assists across 15.3 minutes in five games during this series.

Scores 17 points in Game 5 loss Kuminga produced 17 points (7-16 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 24 minutes during Wednesday's 134-95 loss to the Grizzlies.
Impact Kuminga played only five minutes and didn't score in Game 4, so his 17-point effort in Game 5 was a nice bounceback. However, the forward missed all five of his three-point attempts and didn't contribute much in the way of peripheral stats as Golden State was handed a massive defeat. Most of Kuminga's minutes Wednesday came in garbage time, so it will be interesting to see how he's used in a critical Game 6 on Friday.

Sees just five minutes in Game 4 Kuminga supplied one rebound, one assist and one block in five minutes during Monday's 101-98 victory over the Grizzlies.
Impact While Kuminga logged his second straight start with Gary Payton (elbow) sidelined, coach Steve Kerr went away from the rookie after his initial, five-minute stint to begin the game. This was a departure from what we saw in Game 3, when Kuminga played 18 minutes and finished with 18 points on 8-of-10 shooting with two rebounds.

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.
