Head coach Steve Kerr decided not to turn from the bench to Kuminga as he usually did, which attracted some eyebrows, especially the playoffs are coming. According to Warriors insider Tim Kawakami, he believes Kerr doesn't want to undermine the current chemistry between Golden State by trying to force Kuminga to rotate. “I’m a Kumingga guy,” Kavakami said on “The Warriors and Subtractions.” “I love his game, I know he does knot their offense at times, and I think his talent goes beyond that, but I don't think there's a good momentum in the JK game in the locker room, which doesn't feel like that, I'll say that.” “They like other things they do, like Kerr said, 'We have a unit we like,' they have the rotation they like. I think we can all see, maybe you need to get better in some ways. He didn't conclude that it's not worth the risk of him messing with his chemistry.” -VIA Clutch Point/April 14, 2025
