San Francisco: The Warriors pulled off a thrilling comeback against the Suns, and it was all thanks to Jonathan Kuminga. This guy is really stepping up! He scored a whopping 34 points, matching his career high from the night before. Talk about a hot streak!
With those two free throws late in the game, he helped the Warriors snag a 109-105 win. This victory was a big deal since it snapped their three-game losing streak, bringing their record to 16-15 for the season.
Kuminga was on fire, hitting 12 of 20 shots and going 8 for 12 at the free-throw line. He also grabbed nine rebounds, just missing out on a double-double. And let’s not forget about Steph Curry, who added 22 points and was a game-high plus-20. The crowd was loving it!
One key factor was the absence of Suns center Jusuf Nurkić, who was serving a suspension. This allowed Warriors coach Steve Kerr to mix things up and use Draymond Green at center more often. The new lineup worked wonders, with Kuminga and Green dominating the court.
Draymond found his shooting touch again, scoring 14 points in the second quarter alone. He hadn’t been scoring much lately, but it looks like he got his groove back just in time. Even though he didn’t score in the second half, his first-half performance was crucial.
On the flip side, some of the Warriors’ starters struggled. Buddy Hield, Dennis Schröder, and Andrew Wiggins had a rough night, combining for just 17 points. But Schröder did manage to hit a big three-pointer in the fourth quarter, which helped the team take the lead.
All in all, it was an exciting game, and Kuminga’s performance has fans buzzing about what’s next for the Warriors!
