With Draymond Green and Otto Porter Jr. out, Steve Kerr opted to give Golden State Warriors rookie Jonathan Kuminga a spot in the starting lineup against Julius Randle and the New York Knicks on Thursday at Chase Center.
Despite the Warriors’ late comeback falling short, Kuminga managed to tally double-figures in scoring for his fifth consecutive game.
With an increased role, Kuminga notched 17 points on 5-of-8 shooting from the field with five boards, an assist, a steal and a block in 36 minutes.
