SAN FRANCISCO — Jonathan Kuminga was steaming at his locker that he missed a couple chances at the rim in the second half after Golden State’s 105-101 loss to the Thunder.

Jonathan Kuminga returned from a two-game absence by posting a team-high 19 points as he proves himself as a potential starter.

Kuminga is not a veteran plug-and-play option who can go in and out of the starting unit and produce consistently. Nope. He's a 22-year-old athlete still figuring out his game. He needs consistent playing time. He needs a longer leash.
