Inglewood: The Warriors faced off against the LA Clippers and, unfortunately, it was another tough night for them. They lost 102-92, marking their third defeat to the Clippers this season. Without their stars, Steph Curry and Draymond Green, the team struggled to find their rhythm.
But hey, Jonathan Kuminga really stepped up! He scored a career-high 34 points, showing off his skills around the rim. He was super efficient, hitting 11 of 19 shots and making 11 free throws. It was a bright spot in an otherwise tough game.
Despite Kuminga’s efforts, the rest of the team had a hard time. They fell behind early, trailing by as much as 21 points. They did rally a bit in the fourth quarter, but it just wasn’t enough. The Warriors have had a rough patch lately, going 3-12 in their last 15 games.
Before this game, Kuminga had already shown promise, scoring big in previous outings. He was ready to take on the challenge, even coming off the bench. He led the team in scoring at halftime and finished strong with 10 rebounds and five assists, marking a significant milestone in his career.
On the flip side, Dennis Schroder struggled again. He just couldn’t find his shot, finishing with only seven points. It’s been a tough transition for him since joining the Warriors, and he’s been missing the mark lately.
Andrew Wiggins and Buddy Hield also had off nights. Wiggins, who usually contributes more, only managed five points. Hield, known for his shooting, didn’t do much better. The team really needs to figure out how to win without Curry on the court.
It’s a challenging time for the Warriors, but they’ve got to keep pushing forward. Let’s hope they can turn things around soon!
