The Golden State Warriors were touted as one of the best teams in the Western Conference ahead of the 2023-24 NBA season.
Despite the Warriors having a 5-1 start to the season, the team fell off for quite some time, which led to them dropping out of contention for a playoff spot this season.
However, the Dubs recently went on a considerable winning streak prior to losing a crucial game against the Denver Nuggets on Christmas Day.
Anyway, talking about the players on the Golden State roster, Jonathan Kuminga is someone who has a great ceiling in the NBA if given a proper opportunity.
On top of having a lot of potential, Kuminga is someone who flaunts supreme confidence in his basketball skills, as revealed via NBACentral on Twitter.
“I’ma keep it real with you. Me with the ball, nobody’s guarding me,” Kuminga said.

Now, that’s a huge message sent by the 21-year-old, as he believes that no player in the league can defend him when he has the ball in his hands.
While Kuminga could definitely become a star in the NBA in the future, he is yet to reach that potential.
Even in the 2023-24 NBA season, Kuminga is averaging 12.5 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 1.2 assists per game for the Golden State Warriors.
However, considering the fact that Kuminga is playing just 21.7 minutes per game right now, he can certainly average in the mid-20s if he gets to play considerable minutes under the coaching of Steve Kerr.
Will fans see Kuminga become a superstar in the future?
Only time will tell.
As of now, he is still trying to find his place on the Warriors.
