I think GSW looks for that too. Poole is shockingly confident. It keeps guys playing at high level even in a slump.
I don`t understand why teams skip this man in the draft. This man is incredible!!!
You see this guy also smiling a lot. Which imo is a good thing. He's focused, but also able to relax while playing.
looking forward to seeing JK and Wiseman sharing the floor together.

He's young, very athletic and doesn't appear to be accident prone. He shows that he's very confident in himself. I also feel he has stuck to the Warriors plan in play. He will be great and greater if he continues to learn and keep his mindset on what he is learning. He is what the Warriors need to keep the glue that's missing while Raymond is getting ready to come back during the playoffs.

Totally agree with your assessment. One other thing, he’s a hustler (at this point in time) and with his athleticism, he can be all nba defensive. He has unlimited upside should he develop consistency with his outside shot (which he’s already shown he can hit).

He comes from humble beginnings so have no doubt that he’ll work hard. Ultimately, he’ll be a force at 6’8” and 245-250lbs of pure athleticism coupled with a high skill level and a strong work ethic. With his rising skill level on a team of veterans plus a developing James Wiseman and this team is built to compete for titles over the next 2-4yrs, barring severe injuries.
We all love Kuminga! He's explosive, hard-working, humble and loves to play! What a great team player and asset for the Warriors!

I think a big question is WILL HE START next year? You already have Steph, Klay, Draymond and Wiggins plus the center. Who sits? Nice problem to have. Imagine a second unit of JK, JP, JW, OPJ and GP2. That's better than a few teams' starting lineup.

I was honestly surprised Kuminga fell to us. He was my number 1 player I wanted the dubs to get. Didn’t think he’d fall past OKC and low and behold. This guy will be the most exciting player when the big 3 are retired and/or gone. Hopefully we surround him with more shooters to let him go to work in the iso game.

@the ugly duckling it’s about playing time, my comments. Since he came back he gets more minutes per game than JK.
He's a mini giannis. Forget Wiseman, Kuminga is the future
He is a developing Great defender who is also developing an equally lethal offense and is focused on winning games. He also doesn't appear to be prone to injury. And so far has been consistently excellent since his return from a foot sprain. He also appears to listen to Steve Kerr, Iggy, the senior players and the coaches. I hope he develops into and remains a Great Warrior following in the footsteps of the trinity (Steph, Klay, Dray), always hungry for figuring ways to win even when he gets his bag.
YES, JK is the man for Warriors now. I can't get enough of him. I think Kerr should give him more play time.

What I see is Kerr plugging guys in when there's a specific need with opponent. Kuminga & now Wiggins said Wiseman is a "toolbox" so those 2 guys can plug in with any opponent. Gonna be scary...
ALL NBA player in time. Future is bright.
GSW is building a young, strong and High IQ talented players like Poole Wiggings Kuminga GP2 and Wiseman. By the time Steph Klay and Draymond is retireing they are already matured and ready for the playoffs
LeBron doesn't rim protect unless it's a chase down from behind...because he doesn't want to get posterized.

Look at him being pushed after dunking lebron.
Another exceptional video. Thank you for sharing.
Jonathan Kuminga 🇨🇩💪🏾
The IQ he will pick up from the likes of Iggy are immeasurable
Love how JK plays and that pleasurable looks and accomplishments after he’s completed a basket. Keep up the good work JK.
I continue to be staggered by the implicit biases scouts use to judge players. The critiques on JK coming into the draft were his motor, his shot, and his need to sharpen raw skills. The shooting & honing in of skills makes sense, but they had no idea how impressive his ability to quickly adapt & learn from his mistakes was, WHICH unsurprisingly speaks directly to his impressive motor and a drive to be great & fulfill his own potential . I think it's easy for ppl to mistake a low-key personality types for a lack of drive, but if years of watching Klay & Steph, especially when contrasted with Russ, has taught us anything it's that growling, scowling & playing at 100 mph isn't the only metric to evaluate heart and motor. Focus shows up in various ways & JK always comes in focused & ready to impact the game. Ted Talk over.

Or you can argue Kuminga won the lottery drafted by the warriors, who actually took the time and effort to develop him, instead of letting him ride on his pure raw talent and potential alone till he flames out.
Woo he deserves to be in the rising star games!

0:22 he looked like the guy that was guarding him but 5 inches taller
Call me crazy but I can see him being as good as Giannis.
This guys ceiling is insane
JK makes me remember Dr. J. His pose, his explosiveness, his defense, his shooting, his game. He even has the coolness of the doctor.
How do you use NBA clips without getting copyrighted and where are you getting these clips from? I’m interested in making basketball videos and I love the type of clips you use and I was wondering how you get them?
Jeez that dunk, whew jeez omgosh got-damn
Another superstar!!
Kuminga is exciting to watch. I believe, to get to the next level, he has to be a bit more versatile offensively. He should understand defenses will work to take away his staple right to left spin to the basketball. He should better discern when to take the spin and learn counter moves such as a fake spin left to floater right or, alternatively, a mid range jumper. That way, he can be less predictable inside and keep defenses honest.
He might be the most improved player next year if he keeps improving and moving to the starting line up next season
I can see a young lbj to Kuminga 💪🏼👊🏼
Next season is really interesting for the warriors
That leap at 0:15 secs is wild
This vid needs to be updated
1:35 this guy and that guy🤣
If kuminga was picked by another team, He would probably been on a bench, esp if picked by Lakers. He will not grow with James. Love HIM hes a beast.
he is a glimmer man.
If Kuminga adds about 15 pounds of muscles and maybe even on the off-chance he still might get a couple inches taller (he’s still 19, and people can keep growing until around 22 in some cases), the Dubs could have the next Giannis. Imagine Kuminga from the 3 point line, doing a jab step, taking one dribble, then euro-stepping just outside the paint and next he’s already at the rim. We’ve practically already seen him do this kind of stuff as a rookie. He already has the quickness and explosive-leaping ability. It’s just a matter of getting stronger and refining his handle. But he definitely has that kind of ceiling IMO. Point-Center JK, with the Dubs-level of shooting? Sign me up for that 👏
#SHOWTIME *BABY*
HE A GREAT YOUNG MEN.Plus He A WARRIOR.
les go 69.6k subs
he just slides to the rim with power as well...2-3 steps from the arc and he's already at the rim. His 3 point shot is also already showing promise
He has Mamba Mentality because Kobe was his idol.
We need a updated Kuminga vid
Bro really built like ma 2k character like deadass wait till he older
If he specialized in the mid-range AND keep that attack mentality - he looks like MJ. before you shit on what I said, go look at some MJ highlights. Mj was 6'6" 220. JK is 6'8" 225. got the spin, dunk, left/right, defense and attack mode - all he needs is time.
I know this is old but last night he hit 4 3s in a row. Sheesh.
Bays Godzilla kuminga💪🏼❤️✌🏼
"You can see the drive the power"🤔
who do you get when you make Drose taller, give him a three point shot, add iq and most importantly incorporate durability?
Id say kuminga is the perfect simmons
Damn I’m real glad they didn’t trade him. He will be the Warriors future.
Remember they drafted the greatest shooter in nba history at 7
The Dubs was the PERFECT place for Kuminga to land. As a lifelong Dubs fan, before the draft, I was PRAYING the Dubs would NOT trade away any picks. I knew, as a powerhouse team in the present, the chance to have two lottery picks (let alone 3 when you add in Wiseman the year before), is unheard of. I was HUGE on Kuminga pre-draft and did not think he would be available at 7. When we got him, I was PUMPED. I was telling everyone who would listen (including multiple Bay Area sports radio stations via call-in), that I wanted the Dubs to draft Kuminga in the leadup to the draft. Everyone talks about how he's too raw, and his outside shot is bad. I saw the opposite. I believed his explosiveness and playmaking could allow him to have an immediate and important impact even on a loaded Dubs team. I also didn't buy in to the hate on his outside game. Yes, it isn't GREAT, but his shot is beautiful, aesthetically. Working with the Splash Brothers would only improve that. Then, you have to consider, he is actually younger than almost everyone else in the draft class. He reclassified in high school in order to be eligible for this draft class. His natural draft class would have been the upcoming 2022 draft class. Thus, last year when he was playing against GROWN MEN in the G League, it actually should have been his senior year of HIGH SCHOOL. Let that sink in.
That last put back dunk, the Thunder player didn't know what hit him lol
Sometimes i dont want to build up the guy as he may end up bust and we get disappointed or due to pressure he may not be able to deliver. Will treat him as rookie that needs time to improve as he does not have good perimeter and 3's percentage
❤️❤️❤️
He is a work in progress second coming of the Giannis Antentokompou
we just saw moody perform denver vs gsw the young core are littler by little exposing their superstar ability.. jw should be proven hes new progress after long layoff. if he can perform beyond expectation hes latest improvement will be formidable.. what is really missing are dray, iggy, gp3 amd thats it dubs will become champ again and dynasty is eminent in the near future if healthy.. see youu come finals
His’ ‘She-eee-esh’ Always gets me 😂🤣
Mark my words, he’s going to be a big piece in the playoffs. Aside from our core (DG, SC, KT), he’s gonna be a major piece coming off that bench or Kerr putting him into the starting rotation.
