US EditionWhat Jonathan Kuminga could bring to Warriors in Game 7
- The Golden State Warriors face a decisive Game 7 on Sunday night in Houston with Steve Kerr considering roster adjustments including Jonathan Kuminga.
- Kuminga lost his rotation spot late in the regular season due to roster fit and the arrival of Jimmy Butler, whose role increased as the team shifted lineups.
- Kuminga, a 22-year-old forward who averaged 15.3 points and 4.6 rebounds over 47 games despite injury, has been benched since Game 4 as the Warriors seek better spacing.
- Kerr affirmed after Game 6, “One-hundred percent, he’s on the table,” reflecting the need to counter Houston’s zone defense and find effective lineup changes.
- The Warriors must adapt to survive, and although Kuminga’s impact is uncertain, his athleticism and driving ability might prove valuable in this critical series moment.
