Steve Kerr and his Warriors have been on an absolute tear since the trade deadline, and if you haven’t been paying attention, now’s the time. Adding Jimmy Butler to the mix has completely changed the game for them. With him in the lineup, they’re 9-1 and climbing fast in the Western Conference. He’s brought a level of toughness and physicality on the wing that as good as Wiggins was but he just was providing. And here’s the scary part—they’re about to get even stronger.
Jonathan Kuminga, who’s been out since early January with an ankle injury, is inching closer to a return. Before going down, he was playing the best basketball of his career—dropping 24.3 points, grabbing eight boards, and dishing out 3.2 assists per game over his last six outings. He was also attacking the rim like a star, averaging 10 free-throw attempts per night.
Kerr made it clear they won’t rush him back. “He has to feel right. He has to feel healthy. He has to feel explosive. We can’t rush that,” he said.
