[Highlight] Jonathan Kuminga switches hands in mid-air for the powerful lefty dunk over the business decision by Yang Hansen (with replays). Hawks and Blazers commentaries
Bro is smiling more in ATL than his whole time with the Warriors
he got his joy back
Like butler? š
You just hate to see sad multi-millionaires
Just like Alysa Liu
He smiled all the time with the warriors. Yall just saying anything to make the warriors look bad
Warriors lowkey the most toxic franchise in the last 3 years
lowkey?
I hope someone in GS’s front office is slithering through this subreddit and see’s these highlights
yea Kuminga never had cool dunks when he was on our team
He actually has the GSW record for most dunks in a season
that’s insane.
wilt used to play for the warriors
NBA didnāt start tracking dunks until 1996
Okay that makes sense cause I was thinking there was no way in hell that could be possible lol
Probably a case of dunks not being recorded back then.
Boston is similar. Technically Robert Williams, Kevin McHale and Robert Parish are tied for most blocks in a game by a Celtic at 9.
However, we know from articles and commentary at the time that Bill was averaging ~8 per game, and he played 13 seasons.
So even though those 3 hold the official record, they likely wouldn’t be in the top 100 (or maybe even top 200) if Bill’s blocks had been recorded.
More than Jason Richardson?!
no way. over jrich?
wow you donāt say
He actually did say.
yeah he did
No, I did say
Woosh
Slithering? KD isnāt with yall org no more my guy.
This stuff happened all the time during his warriors tenure, the guy just didnāt seem to be too bright. Tunnel vision with the ball was his #1 issue.
They wanted him out for a reason and that was for his low BBIQ.
Nique: “Thank you Golden State Warriors” haha
No way the Warriors give him up. He was doing a great job at the beginning of the season with the Warriors and I have no idea why warriors don’t give him time. He was easily our third best scorer after Butler and Curry.
Kerr hates him and wonāt play him. Coaching malpractice.
Getting DNP’d by Kerr means you’re Tatum’s level.
He musta broke some code we donāt know about
KD said Kerr doesnāt like dark skins after he got punched by MJ
I love that I can’t tell if this is real or not. I mean shit, it may have been on a KD burner for all I know.
EDIT: shit, it may have even been on his main. KD is wild.
Im crying lmfaoooo
Would be a great theory but heās in love with Dray and loved Iguodala
To be fair, its hard to give him minutes when he plays for a different team
Draymond Green loyalty, really. Kerr refused to consider benching him, even though it’s been clear since last season Green needs to come off the bench and play 25mpg. An increasingly loud component of the GSW fanbase has finally realized Green starting is actively harming the team. About time, really.
Green and Kerrā¦
The code enforcers
dray has been washed since 21. replace him with a competent big and the warriors would’ve been better for years
He wasnāt washed last year but this season he fell off a cliff
I know you guys stick up for him but he’s been washed for a while IMO. I think his defense has been overrated and he’s been holding you back on offense for years. I think a good center in his role over the last 5 years would be a revelation to warriors fans as to how bad he is and how catering to him as an organization has been such a disservice to stephs final years
He was a dpoy candidate last season
I have no idea why warriors don’t give him time
Steph was pushing for the trade behind the scenes because he knows the window is closing (it’s closed imo). JK didn’t fit with Draymond but Draymond fits with Steph. Tic Tac Toe.
Steph did not push for a trade that would make them worse man
If Steph wanted Kuminga on the team he would be there lol. Idk how you donāt get that
Steph isnt the gm you think he is he trusts his organization to make moves good or not
Players do not know how actual teambuilding works. Ask Lebron and Westbrook. Steph 100% could have been pushing for the trade and not understanding how to make a contender.
Steph wasnt pushing for a kp trade someone whos barely played the entire season, kp is a salary dump and nothing else.
I can’t find the video but there was a game where jk was in and Steph yells at Kerr to Put Gui back in
JK was getting DNP’s and Steph was pushing behind the scene.
Kerr has been stupid as hell, steph liked kuminga.
Kuminga refused to play Warriors basketball. Kerr as a coach, as a 4x champion coach, tried to make him listen to the gameplan that prioritizes Steph instead of an Ignite flunkie.
Except the team needed a secondary scorer would get get a bucket on his own without the system. Instead of developing that they made him role player.
So Steph should be #2 and just let Kuminga fire away when he was still in his prime? Good one, enjoy being the Kings when Steph retires
Nobody said that, i just said a secondary scorer do you know what that is or are you being intentionally obtuse.
How are you going to develop a lottery pick if they cant play free and make mistake? Warriors is a Steph system, maybe you should learn how your team work before posting. You think Steph has time letting Kuminga make mistake when he is trying to win his 5th chip?
He didnāt want be developed. Kuminga had a 4x champion coach who played for two of the winningest coaches of all time, and he thought he deserved to be treated as an equal to Curry.
Prove that he wanted to be treated as an equal to curry right now
Prove what? It was clear as day that he didnāt want to run the Warriors offense that featured Steph and made everyone else have to run passing plays until someone got open. And every time Kuminga would get on a roll, he would just go into poor manās Kobe mode and destroy whatever offense the Warriors were running.
Steph would have 5 rings if Warriors actually sold their lottery picks when they had value. Enjoy being the Kings for decades again for disrespecting Steph
Nobody wanted those picks. Warriors never got a decent offer.
If Lebron and AD got the Lakers 4 rings, I guarantee you all their picks will be gone in their twilight years in an attempt to get their 5th ring. Meanwhile Joe Lacob lightyears ahead baby
Warriors actually sold their lottery picks when they had value.
Where was the salary coming for in these trades? That’s why they held on to those picks because they were cheap contracts.
yeah sure buddy salary ahahah. If Steph Klay Dray Kerr was the on Lakers, 100% all picks are gone to try win their 5th instead of lightyears ahead koolaid
You need salary for trades. So once again where was that coming from? Warriors have outspent the Lakers every year.
Keep making excuses dude. I dont work in the front office, but i guarantee if this was the Lakers they would choose their championship squad instead of lightyears ahead and make the salary work
Lakers literally traded their championship squad away for Westbrook. Stop holding up these bums as what to do.
Talking like you’re in a group chat with Steph and the team, lmao miss me with that shhh
Youāre doing the same thing with the āSteph loved him!!ā
Steph’s mouthpiece Marcus Thompson said so himself on the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6972965/2026/01/15/jonathan-kuminga-warriors-trade-deadline-nba/
āWhatās that, $33 million just sitting on the bench, not playing?ā one player said, referencing Kuminga and Buddy Hield.
Heās athletic but wasnāt consistent and wasnāt a good decision maker. No doubt heāll improve, but the honeymoon phase with the hawks will fade fast
I think playing in a system like ours where he is even still allowed to be the third best scorer expectation wise on the team is going to lead to him having a better chance of reaching his ceiling. And if he turns out to be the leading scoring option so be it. This team really does play team ball. Really might be the perfect landing spot for him. Him and JJ and NAW playing together is fun as fuck.
Lmao this is pure ,copium. He wasnāt consistent because his minutes werenāt consistent.
Bob and Nique are legitamitely in love with him itās kinda hilarious
Coz bro has been benched and white anted with the press for multiple seasons.
Literally drove down his value to the point where Atlanta got him for a dime and probably on the expectation he might be a bust.
Bro can ball. And I’m sure Nique loves someone who can throw down like that as well.
Fine the warriors
How did Nico Kerr let this happen?
He gets one good dunk and that = great player? ššš
Avr 20ppg btw
I’m so happy to see him happy and being fully embraced and appreciated. I also love all the crow being thrown at the Warriors. Kuminga haters are fuming lol
Nasty damnĀ
Kerr really screwed upĀ
I saw lakers fans saying that Gabe was just all cardio when they traded him, Iād disagree. Heās a solid backup guard that plays good defense which is nice to see on this team. Also makes smart passes. Glad to have him and that 2nd
Lebron fans call every single role player a terrorist or ājust getting cardioā
Itās been annoying the last 7 years hearing literally every single other player get thrown under the bus repeatedly.
That description is slightly exaggerated
Yeah. It was an impressive dunk, but he went up with two and finished with the left. Didnāt switch hands at all
Kuminga already better than Lebron
Imagine if giving away an athletic forward like JK for nothing. What an incompetent franchise from top to bottom.
Ehh not really switching hands. Went up with two hands and dunked it with his left. Impressive still but not switching hands mid air
This the only reason I came to post. Great dunk but not really switching hands.
Ya I was expecting a true switch but itās pretty clear he wanted to cock it back with the right but audibled as soon as he launched.
Sick play regardless.
Yea I think the commentators got over-excited - they haven’t seen too many good dunks this year since Jalen Johnson seems to have throttled it down to prevent injury. What made this one impressive was it was from basically a standstill
The smiling hooper is back. Wishing Kuminga nothing but smooth sailing for the rest for his career,
KD was right about the Warriors
Heās been set freeā¦Ā
This is good dunk
He found his joy back
Blazers thought they were being really fucking clever picking Hansen. Could have had Coward who would be a perfect fit. That was some weak ass shit Yang.
Haters keep saying āJust wait, soon heāll have a really bad gameā and so far it hasnāt happened.
Would also like to add, every single player in the history of the fucking sport has bad games. Stop using that as some kind of diss because you donāt understand how stupid that makes you look.
Why are the majority of the comments saying that this is proof the Warriors should have kept him? Itās one dunk lol. We all knew he could dunk.
It’s been three games of good efficient play. Two games against the Wizards, no disrespect.
His first game returning after getting benched as a warrior this season he also had one of these games on very high efficiency.
Glad GS got rid of this no talent guy. Why would GS need a 20 and 8 guy in their line up, when they have 12 role players and Draymond.
Wow. His attitude and joy is night and day between this and his time here.
how many kuminga posts are just full of comments shitting on the warriors instead of actually praising and hyping up Kuminga lol.
Im here for it lol
That was cool but, damn. you would have thought he jumped over somebody like Vince the way they reacted. š¤£
Lowkey athletic play.
Nice play. Still overrated. Just give it time.
Wish him all the best but are we really talking about a garbage time dunk in the association??
Itās a cool dunk lol I hate when people say stuff like this
Didn’t switch hands and basically zero defense, but still nice
People in here acting like Atlanta won the trade based on one Kuminga dunk.
Hawks fans will get frustrated with him eventually.
KP is a DNP on any given night. Kuminga is playing and well at that. Whoever plays more by the end of the year wins the trade. That simple.
Do you know what they gave up?
itās going to be fun when hawks fans start seeing kuminga pout when jalen comes back
when jalen starts running the offense and IS the number 1 option, kuminga is going to start pouting
Jalen played in this game….
played. but nursing an injury.
the honeymoon phrase is crazy.
