The Golden State Warriors haven’t had many opportunities to truly celebrate during the 2023-24 NBA season.
However, a rare occasion was presented to the Warriors following the team’s sensational win over the Los Angeles Clippers.
While Stephen Curry was his usual dominant self, it was none other than Jonathan Kuminga who impressed most fans with his sensational performance.
Speaking of Kuminga, who has started back-to-back games for the Warriors, team veteran Draymond Green heaped huge praise on him via KNBR on Twitter.
“You wanna know what I tell him? There’s nobody in the world that can stop you,” Green said.

Over the course of his career, many have learned that impressing Green is not always easy.
However, Green is seemingly in the corner of Kuminga, as the Warriors rookie put up excellent numbers during the Warriors versus Clippers game.
Kuminga was awarded 39 minutes of playing time, where he recorded 26 points, 7 rebounds, and 1 assist against the Clippers.
Thanks to Kuminga’s excellent performance, the Warriors were able to register a 119-107 win over the Clippers.
However, the job is far from done for the Warriors, as they have only improved their record to 20-24.
They still have an uphill battle before the 2023-24 NBA season ends.
After all, the Dubs remain the 12th seed in the West even after more than half of the season has already been played.
As for Kuminga, he is averaging 14.8 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 1.6 assists per game for the team.
Can the Warriors rely on the incredible form of Kuminga and ultimately make a comeback this season?
