Not affected by the contract renewal crisis! The Warriors forward star looks like he has strengthened his shortcomings?

In a previous NBA preseason game, the Golden State Warriors, who played at home, successfully defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 111-103. After this game, the Warriors got a good start in the preseason; while the Lakers suffered two consecutive losses in the preseason, and two miserable losses.

In this game, the performance of Jonathan Kuminga, who had just completed a contract renewal with the Warriors, was impressive. Kumingga played 14 minutes and 44 seconds in the whole game, made 2 of 3 shots, 1 of 2 from outside the three-point line, and 0 of 2 free throws, scoring 5 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 block, and there was 1 turnover and 1 foul, with a plus-minus value of +7. Kumingga performed very comprehensively on the offensive end in this game. He did not rush and beat on the offensive end like he did in the previous few seasons. He controlled his shots and did not continue to complete unreasonable attacks. Instead, he sent many wonderful passes to his teammates, exerting his ability to dominate the ball. His improvement in game reading ability is even more unexpected. Kumingga's attitude on the defensive end is also very positive, and he can also use his advantages in physical talent and athletic ability to cause some trouble for his opponents. Overall, Kumingga performed quite well on both offense and defense, and it is definitely worthy of recognition to be able to perform like this when playing time is limited.

In the NBA regular season last season, Kumingga only played 47 games in 82 games, averaging 24.3 minutes per game, averaging 15.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.4 blocks, and 1.5 turnovers and 1.9 fouls, shooting percentage of 45.4%, three-point shooting percentage of 30.5%, and free throw shooting percentage of 66.8%. In the playoffs, influenced by the team's coaching staff tactical arrangements, Kumingga only got 8 play opportunities in 12 games, averaging 23.4 minutes per game, with averaging 15.3 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.5 blocks, and 1.6 turnovers and 1.6 fouls. His shooting percentage was 48.4%, a three-point shooting percentage of 40%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 71%.

Kuminga was in a long contract renewal negotiation with the Warriors this summer, until the start of training camp, when Kuuminga had just signed a two-year contract with the Warriors. However, at least judging from the situation in this game, Kumingga's condition and performance have not been affected by the contract renewal storm, and he has also made significant improvements and progress in many abilities this summer. Kumingga has always been believed to have some problems in football quotient and game reading ability, which also restricts his upper limit. However, judging from the situation in this game, Kumingga also focused on improving his weaknesses in these aspects. If he can really maintain this level, his performance in the new season may be significantly improved?
