I don't think Kuminga is especially risky. Sure, he has some glaring holes in his game, but they were exposed because he played professional basketball last year. Had he played college ball, he'd have averaged 25 and 10 and everybody would be saying he's the next Kawhi Leonard.

Can't talk about big butts without showing off Kyle Lowry's cake. KOC's knows what's up

A yes, a big booty Kyle Lowry apperance. I can see that you're a man of culture as well.

I think Kuminga has the highest star-or-bust potential in this draft. I mean if he fix a couple of things it is hard to not see him dominate. But it is the same thing we told periodically in draft prospects and I think most of the time it doesn't end up well. Like in the last 10 years the players that becomes stars were actually good and solid players previously. Not everyone is Giannis afterall, and we don't see a Giannis if not in a generation.

Dort is 100% a keeper for OKC

No better place for him to learn better court vision and shot selection than GSW. Dude is raw but is in the ideal spot for development. Good pick for the Warriors

You didn't see it but it happened! Kuminga will end up being an NBA great. Mark my words.

This is a pretty good breakdown Jonathan Kuminga. There are two things missing from this scouting report, however: 1. His work ethic 2. some context. He can have all the potential in the world, but if he doesn’t have the relentless drive to be successful, if he doesn’t put in the work, if he doesn’t respect the game, all the upside won’t matter. I also don’t hear any discussion about the different level of competition. There’s a lot of guys in college who could never compete in the G league.

this guy is a beast on myleague

If I’m the Warriors and Kuminga is there at 7 and I keep the pick. I’m popping bottles.

This aged well 😂

He’s doing good right now

So update a little before the All Star break in his first year. The answer is hell yes. 😂.

He reminds me of a taller rookie Oladipo

Lol you predicted it…gsw got kuminga at 7th

I like Kuminga. Super young and raw but the fact he's already been up against NBA-level talent with NBA-level training and coaching ( love coach shaw ) means he has a head start on other guys in this class at the very least physically. Which imo he already had a certain advantage being 6’8 215 with jump out the gym athleticism. Whoever takes him if put in the right scenario could have a stud.

And there you have it. Kuminga to the Warriors

Hasn't struggled with pass or shot selection with the Warriors at all

1:35 ..... Ladies and gentlemen, the ringer has peaked

Not risky and absolutely was worth it

He is no more risk than any other lottery outside the top 4. He has more upside potential than most in the draft. Definitely a fortunate pick for the Warriors!

I think this dude is pretty good now

He reminds me of a certain Greek basketball player when he came out. Wonder whatever happened to that guy.

Warriors need bench not a new starter, great pick I love it!

😂😂 y’all are gunna regret sleeping on kuminga 🤦🏽‍♂️ he’s a All star player and I believe in his rookie year will have a great shot at winning rookie of the year if he starts or not. I would definitely love for my Knicks to move up and get him since you saying he’s raw. Only thing raw about him is his Jumpshot and his poor shot selection which isn’t to bad and he can get that fixed up with the right coach. Trust believe he’s really the third best player in this draft

WARRIORS!!!!!

A lot of people underestimate him because he relies too much on bully ball. But a guy named giannis does the same and somehow just won the championship 🤷🏻‍♂️ I know Kuminga is far away from being like Giannis, but his upside to be like him is there just sayin. Masai draft him pls 🙏🙏

Hahahahahaha! Kuminga looking like giannis and kawaii part 2! G damn. Best thing to happen to warriors since steph curry. Guy is gonna own the nba

His game is not raw his feel for the game at this level is in need of growth as the overwhelming majority of 18 year olds. Remember, even Kobe had these same issues as a rookie.

This analysis coming from the guy who had Killian Hayes as his #1 on the board last year….

I think Kuminga is going to be the best player in this draft. He will develop into a play with no weaknesses. This guy is not understanding his athleticism because Danny Granger, Luol Deng, and Jeff Green are all stiffs compared to Kuminga.

I hope a team takes him before the Dubs pick, don’t need another project to develop

If he can shoot the 3 ball well maybe he could be similar to OG Anunoby. I know very little about prospects, but he has a similar body to OG. He screams great role player to me, but what the heck do I know really.

Kuminga is now a NBA champion with the warriors

1:36 is what yall came here for

Good analysis people forget about the most important part of defense is discipline... gameplan tendencies..

Kuminga is a project.

Is there a bigger lock for someone to be picked by Orlando?

I think that he isn't going tp be a bust if he goes to OKC but if he's going to the Warriors or Magic, yeah that's a bust. I don't think the Warriors need a raw prospect, and I still haven't forgiven Orlando for the Mo Bamba nightmare. He had so much potential and then they shelved him and traded for Wendell Carter Jr. like WTF??!?!?

Remind me Jimmy Butler with a pascal siakam

Gotta love my boy KOC

KoC is on point

Trey Murphy is my Danny Granger comp

Praying my raps draft him

best thing him for him is to fall to team where he can develop and get reps. i feel like going top 5 will have teams expecting too much from a teenager.

OKC POKUuminga?

Let's Go Grizz..... I said what I said. We're not done, stay tuned

It’s tough, I think Scottie Barnes has just as much all-around star potential, but with MUCH higher/safer floor just because of his elite defense and athleticism. Kuminga looks to have the higher perimeter offensive potential though. Tough choice for Orlando at 5.

well kuminga did get drafted by the warriors

All those negatives you mention can be explained by him being 18. Coaching and experience will temper most of the negatives.

Kevin O'Feast

Back again now GSW drafted him 📈

The Magic and Thunder seem like exactly the teams that are built for Kuminga right now since they’re both not in a winning situation right now and shouldn’t mind developing and fixing up Kuminga

Highest bust potential in the top 5 imo

Great breakdown KOC, the downsides + inconsistent effort would mark him as a likely slider on draft day. I'd stay away unless he drops to the mid teens.

The draft is a complete crapshoot unless you’re drafting a generational guy like zion or durant. I’d say that at least 60 to 70 percent of the guys who get drafted have the raw potential to be high level nba players and their success is solely dependent upon their work ethic and the team they end up on

I see alot of Wiggins in him ,not in a good way

Weight room jalen brown?

yo, who makes the music for this, music hype

kuminga starting to turn it around ... so many are willing to give up on him, say he's a disappointment, or trade him for a veteran kuminga has always been the highest upside player of the "young core" the GSW had ... him being a versatile big win gave him an advantage over wiseman who is a true center and unless you're a special talent like jokic or embiid ... going to be tough for most NBA team to build a team around that kind of talent in this day and age remember kuminga is still only 20 years old and if he didn't reclassify a couple of years ago this would be his true NBA rookie season and last season should've been where he spent all of the year in the gleague which is the route he went the year before in 2020/21 post all star break in 25 minutes per game kuminga is averaging 13.3 pts 4.1 reb 2.0 ast on 56% fg, 42% on 3, 67% ft shooting defensively which was a question mark is also improving as he's always been a really good one on one on ball defender even dating back to his rookie season in 2021/22 ... now he's learning to be a better team defender this season kerr likened kuminga to that of former suns/mavs marion ... definitely could see kuminga having that kind of upside down the road ... maybe even better if he continues to improve thru out his NBA career

Warriors need to think about the future Jonathan kuminga will be perfect on the warriors, could you imagine. WISEMAN, KAI. JONES, GREEN , K. Love ,Kuminga, Kelly oubre, Thompson, Poole, Curry, Payton. Man thats a good team. You my ask how they get love well do you see Wiggins no .

I want Moody for the Warriors at 7 but a lot of people in the Bay Area want this guy

He looks a bit like Siakam to me

The first 10 seconds of this video is said about so many guys haha😂

How is he different from Andrew Wigginz?

No Jalen Suggs video KOC?

could you do video on jrue holiday? i’m not sure whether he appeared on the series as the protagonist before

Fellow OKC fans would you rather them take Kuminga or Bouknight

Now 7th pick by the warriors 👍

Raptors got him

I feel like at this point Kuminga is getting underrated, someone gunna get a steal at like pick 6-10

Reminds me of Jeff Green

KUMINGA >>LEFRAUD thanks for hearing me out

Reminds me a little bit of Andrew Wiggins has the size and athleticism to be a great two-way player but ends up underwhelming on both ends, not a total bust but never gonna be an all-star, hope he goes to OKC, a small market where he can develop slowly without pressure.

Kuminga looks like a very risky pick, the team that takes him needs to have the patience. Sounds like a perfect fit for OKC or Magic. Don't count out the Cavs to do something stupid and draft him at 3....

Kuminga is pretty much rookie Andrew Wiggins rn

Go Golden State Warriors. 🏀🌁🇺🇸

GSW !!!!

Golden State wanted to trade both of their picks for a veteran who can shoot and at least play non detrimental defense ( Klay Thompson hopefully will be cleared to play by December--hopefully) They found no trading partner . The players they drafted especially at 7 is not going to contribute to a title contending team and goes against their plan on 2021 being the return to Warriors greatness. He has potential and upside two words that more often than not mean he needs a year or more before he will be NBA ready

Kuminga to Houston Rockets 🚀!!!

Kum Bucket!

This dude swear he can scout 😂 didn't he say Hayes should go #1 last year 🤡

1:35 💀💀💀💀

Is he 6'8" or 6'6"?

Gs should've drafted wagner instead

You're gonna draft him out of the G League just to send him back to the G League. If you watch full games and not just highlights, you"ll know his game is too raw and not worth of a lottery pick.

sportsballs!

he look likes a tall RJ barrett

He lowkey play like Giannis

A true comparison is Paul George without a shot, good handle, size, a good passer for his position, good defender, he just can’t shoot and Is a bad shot taker . Which I would be ok with because he’s 18! Forwards is the most important positions.

Cough Cough Stanley Johnson

Warriors should get him at 14

He looks so rough right now. People compare him to Siakam when he was first drafted. But Siakam was drafted at 27 for a reason, Kuminga doesn't have one NBA skill right now. No way i would take him in the top 10.

He’s been my favorite prostate from this draft sense 2019 players have jumped him in rank and drop below him in rank but I always feel like he was the most solid

If he slips to the Warriors, it's over.

Let’s say Kuminga gets drafted 7th by the warriors Let’s say Detroit picks Darko over Melo Let’s say Blazers choose Oden & that guy over MJ & Durant

Josh Primo

He can't shoot and he can't play defense but other than that he's perfect. Really?

I don’t understand why Kuminga is believed to have such upside. He is cant shoot he has mediocre vision and is bad at defense. He literally cant do anything against NBA athletes

I love how on everything draft board this guy is sliding.. lolol warriors at 7 is laughable this kid is a top 5 lock and quite frankly raptors would be wise to get him at 4
