JK created NBA history against the Hawks with a flawless shooting display
Jonathan Kuminga made a significant impact in the Golden State Warriors’ 134-112 victory over the Atlanta Hawks at Chase Center, marking a memorable game for the young forward.
He achieved a remarkable feat by scoring 25 points, grabbing nine rebounds, and providing two assists, all while maintaining a perfect shooting record of 11-of-11 from the field.
This performance not only tied him with Warriors legend Chris Mullin for the most field goals without a miss (11) in franchise history but also carved out a place in NBA history for the 21-year-old forward.
Jonathan Kuminga is currently showcasing the finest performance of his early NBA career, boasting career-high averages of 13.9 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 1.5 assists per game. He maintains an impressive shooting percentage of 52.6% from the field across 40 games in the ongoing season.
Unlike his first two NBA seasons, where he struggled to secure a consistent role in coach Steve Kerr’s rotations, Kuminga is now not only receiving regular playing time but has become a crucial contributor to the Warriors’ success this season.
With a current record of 19-22, the Warriors will heavily rely on Kuminga as they seek to rebound and make a push in the competitive Western Conference playoff race.
