On Tuesday night the Golden State Warriors took down the New Orleans Pelicans, 124-106, in the team's first game without Steph Curry this season. It was a bit of a rollercoaster of an evening for young forward Jonathan Kuminga, as reports emerged prior to tip-off that he was getting benched by head coach Steve Kerr after starting the first three games of the year.
It came across as another controversial decision from Kerr involving a young rotation player after several years' worth of them, and Kuminga revealed to reporters after the game that he didn't really have a conversation with the head coach about the decision. Instead, Kerr informed him via text.
