Jonathan Kuminga is making headlines after reports of his unhappiness with the Golden State Warriors and losing faith in coach Steve Kerr. Kuminga recently showed up to the Warriors game on Friday with a new haircut, and Warriors fans immediately roasted the young player.Shams Charania and Anthony Slater of The Athletic reported that Kuminga has had enough of Kerr's rotation following his 19-minute outing against the Denver Nuggets. He was playing great and helped build an 18-point lead before getting pulled out.
The Nuggets fought back with Andrew Wiggins on the floor, and Kuminga was on the bench for the final 18 minutes. It was a disastrous fourth quarter for Golden State as Nikola Jokic hit a 40-foot buzzer-beater to win it for the defending champions.
Amid reports of his unhappiness in Golden State and rumors of a potential trade, Kuminga showed up on Friday with a buzz cut.
Still, there’s little doubt that the Kings have something to prove after the Warriors eliminated them from the postseason in April.
It was here at the Golden 1 Center that the Warriors won a crucial Game 5 in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs, then laid an egg in Game 6 at home before going back to Sacramento and watching Curry score 50 points on their way to a series win.
The Kings are back this season with a similar look, and the Domantas Sabonis-Da’Aaron Fox combination was on full display again on Sunday night in the Kings’ first home game since their postseason elimination.
