Kuminga Thrives as Hawks' Sixth Man
Description
Jonathan Kuminga, a twenty-three-year-old forward, is making a strong impression with the Atlanta Hawks following his trade from the Golden State Warriors. In his debut, he scored twenty-seven points on seventy-five percent shooting, averaging seventeen point three points, seven point seven rebounds, and three point three assists in three games. Danny Green and Paul Pierce of the No Fouls Given podcast suggest Kuminga could excel as a sixth man scorer, similar to Jamal Crawford, due to the Hawks starting lineup having ball-dominant players. However, some, like Dominique Wilkins, question why the Warriors let go of such a young talent. Kuminga, on a two-year, forty-six million dollar deal, is embracing the game plan and trusting his teammates. The question remains whether he can maintain this early momentum and secure consistent minutes to become a star.
