Kuminga amassed 28 points (9-18 FG, 10-12 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal across 33 minutes during Monday's 109-98 victory over the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

It's the third double-double of the season for Kuminga, with two of them coming in the last eight contests. The third-year forward's hot streak has lasted a little longer than that, though -- he's popped for 20-plus points in nine of the last 10 games, averaging 24.9 points, 6.7 boards, 2.2 assists, 1.4 threes and 1.3 steals over that stretch while shooting 60.8 percent from the floor and a stunning 53.8 percent (14-for-26) from long distance.

Kuminga finished Friday's 121-101 win over Memphis with 29 points (11-15 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals in 37 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Kuminga ended January with seven consecutive performances of 20-plus points, averaging 25.1 points on 61.9 percent shooting from the field -- including 54.5 percent from three-point range -- over that span. The turn to February didn't slow him down, as the third-year forward led the Warriors in scoring Friday while making 11 shots on 15 attempts. Much of Kuminga's production came in the second quarter, when he made all six of his field-goal tries en route to 15 points to help Golden State build a double-digit lead by halftime. It's probably unrealistic to expect the 21-year-old to continue shooting at this fiery a rate, but the breakout increasingly appears to be real, so fantasy managers who held onto Kuminga through some early-season struggles (or plucked him off the waiver wire in leagues in which he was dropped) are entitled to feel pretty good about themselves right now.

Kuminga chipped in 26 points (11-19 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, three steals, two assists and one block across 39 minutes during Tuesday's 119-107 victory over the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

The absence of Klay Thompson (illness) opened up some extra minutes and usage for Kuminga, but even before Tuesday's contest, the third-year forward had been rolling offensively either as a starter or reserve. In his last seven games, Kuminga is averaging 25.1 points, 6.7 rebounds, 1.7 three-pointers, 1.7 assists and 1.3 steals in 32.0 minutes while shooting 61.9 percent from the field, 77.4 percent from the charity stripe and 54.5 percent from downtown. Before Thompson was a late scratch and Brandin Podziemski was summoned for a spot start, head coach Steve Kerr suggested that he planned to maintain continuity with the top unit moving forward, so Kuminga looks as though he'll stick as a starter in the frontcourt alongside Draymond Green.

Kuminga finished with 22 points (8-16 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-6 FT), nine rebounds and two assists over 43 minutes during Saturday's 145-144 double-overtime loss to the Lakers.

EDGE Analysis

Making his first start since Jan. 10, Kuminga fell just short of his third double-double of the season while scoring at least 20 points for the sixth straight game. The third-year forward is averaging 25.0 points, 6.7 boards, 1.8 threes, 1.7 assists and 1.0 steals in 30.8 minutes a contest over that stretch while shooting 62.8 percent from the floor and 57.9 percent (11-for-19) from long distance.

Kuminga will start Saturday's game against the Lakers, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kuminga has been on a tear since moving to a bench role, scoring 20-plus points in each of his last five contests and averaging 25.6 points, 6.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.2 steals in 28.4 minutes per game over that stretch. Kuminga will be making his 16th start of the season.

Kuminga ended Thursday's 134-133 loss to the Kings with 31 points (12-19 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, three assists and two steals in 30 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Kuminga was dialed in Thursday against the Kings, making solid contributions all over the floor. Although Kuminga and Draymond Green are coping with Dario Saric's promotion to the starting lineup, they are both making cases for a return to the first unit. Kuminga is certainly a piece of the Warriors' future plans, as the 2021 first-round pick is reaping dividends nightly. He's enjoying a solid January, averaging 19.9 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.5 assists over 10 games.

Kuminga finished Wednesday's 134-112 win over the Hawks with 25 points (11-11 FG, 3-5 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, two blocks and two steals across 29 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

The Warriors returned to action after the death of assistant coach Dejan Milojevic and played inspired ball. Kuminga was one of seven Warriors to score in double digits in an emotionally-charged win. Although Kuminga is back with the second unit, his production has actually increased coming off the bench, averaging 24.3 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.0 steals over the past four games.

Kuminga posted 20 points (9-18 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and 11 rebounds in 29 minutes during Monday's 116-107 loss to the Grizzlies.

EDGE Analysis

Kuminga has scored at least 20 points in three games in a row, and furthermore, he has cleared the 15-point plateau in each of his last five outings coming off the bench. He's been shifting between the starting lineup and the bench all season long, but it seems he'll remain a bench alternative for the time being. Over his last 10 contests, he's averaging 16.9 points, 5.6 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game in what has been a career-best season for him.

Kuminga recorded 28 points (10-18 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 30 minutes during Saturday's 129-118 loss to the Bucks.

EDGE Analysis

After erupting for 24 points in 24 minutes in Friday's win over the Bulls, Kuminga stayed hot in the second half of the back-to-back set, achieving a new career-high scoring total in the process. The 18 shots he attempts Saturday were his second-most of the season, though his uptick in usage came with the caveat that Stephen Curry was sitting out for rest purposes. Curry should be back in action for Monday's game in Memphis, but the greater threat to Kuminga's fantasy outlook moving forward is Draymond Green, who could be cleared to play against the Grizzlies after missing each of the last 16 games due to a suspension and reconditioning. The 21-year-old has likely at least solidified a permanent rotation spot for himself moving forward, as he's averaging 15.9 points, 5.2 rebounds and 2.1 assists over his last 19 outings.

Kuminga will come off the bench for Friday's contest against the Bulls, Shayna Rubin of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kuminga is being replaced by Dario Saric in the starting lineup. It is unclear what caused head coach Steve Kerr to make this change, but it will snap a 14-game starting streak. The 21-year-old has averaged 11.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 0.9 assists across 20.2 minutes in 21 games as a reserve.
