Kuminga scored 19 points (5-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 6-10 FT) while adding seven rebounds and an assist in 27 minutes off the bench during Friday's 109-106 preseason win over the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Kyle Anderson got the start at power forward for the Warriors but didn't make much of an impact in 18 minutes, while Kuminga led the team in rebounding and finished second in scoring behind Moses Moody's 23. When the regular season begins, Kuminga will almost certainly be Golden State's starting four as he looks to build on a breakout 2023-24 campaign that saw him set career highs with 16.1 points, 4.8 boards and 2.2 assists over 74 regular-season games.

Kuminga will play a reserve role in Friday's preseason contest against the Kings, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Golden State continues to shuffle its starting lineup around in the third exhibition game of the season. Kuminga compiled 16 points (6-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 0-2 FT), two rebounds and an assist across 20 minutes in Wednesday's 122-112 win over the Kings, and he is seemingly a lock for the starting lineup once the regular-season tips off. However, Gary Payton will get the starting nod in Friday's game.

Kuminga tallied 16 points (6-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 0-2 FT), two rebounds and an assist across 20 minutes in Wednesday's 122-112 win over the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Kuminga appears to have a firm hold as the starter at the four for the Warriors, although Andrew Wiggins and newly acquired Kyle Anderson will also compete for playing time. On paper, Kuminga's skill set is a bit more diverse, with the ability to stretch the floor via a keen perimeter shot while also tending to duties in the frontcourt.

Kuminga totaled seven points (3-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal across 19 minutes in Saturday's 91-90 preseason win over the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Kuminga's 19 minutes of on-court time Saturday were most of the Warriors' starting five. The 2021 first-round pick is expected to step into a larger role on offense next to Stephen Curry after Klay Thompson left for Dallas in free agency. Across 74 regular-season games (46 starts) in 2023-24, Kuminga averaged a career-high 16.1 points on 52.9 percent shooting, along with 4.8 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.5 blocks over 26.4 minutes per game.

Kuminga will come off the bench for Tuesday's game against the Kings, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Francisco reports.

EDGE Analysis

Draymond Green is good to go after missing the season finale, so this is an expected move for Kuminga. Despite this move to the second unit, Kuminga figures to see a healthy amount of minutes going forward.

Kuminga contributed zero points (0-4 FG), seven assists, one block and two steals over 23 minutes during Sunday's 123-116 win over the Jazz.

EDGE Analysis

Kuminga didn't look good in the final game of the regular season, though one bad outing is not going to undermine all the progress he achieved throughout the campaign. Kuminga started the year as a bench alternative but was Golden State's best player on prolonged stretches, hitting the 20-point mark in 23 different appearances and posting career-high per-game figures across most popular categories outside of blocks and three-point percentage.

Kuminga (pelvis) is active and starting in Sunday's regular-season finale versus Utah.

EDGE Analysis

Kuminga, who had been dealing with a right pelvic contusion, will get a chance to star in the offense with Stephen Curry and Draymond Green both resting Sunday. Kuminga has averaged 21.4 points, 4.7 rebounds and 2.0 assists in seven games without Curry this season.

Kuminga (pelvis) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Jazz.

EDGE Analysis

Kuminga did not play Friday against the Pelicans with coach Steve Kerr saying that the forward was in a lot of pain. Kerr mentioned Friday that he was planning to rest several key rotation players, and Kuminga could be a candidate for a maintenance day due to his pelvis issue.

Kuminga (groin) will not play Friday against the Pelicans, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kuminga tweaked his groin against Portland on Thursday night, and coach Steve Kerr said he's in a lot of pain. Fantasy managers should consider him questionable for Sunday against the Jazz. The good news for Golden State is that both Klay Thompson and Draymond Green will be active Friday after sitting out against the Trail Blazers.

Kuminga is questionable for Friday's game against the Pelicans due to a right pelvic contusion.

EDGE Analysis

Kuminga has appeared in the last three matchups and drew a start during Thursday's win over the Trail Blazers. However, it's unclear whether he'll be available for the second half of the back-to-back set. If he's sidelined Friday, Andrew Wiggins, Dario Saric and Trayce Jackson-Davis could see increased run.
