Steph Curry Responded to Jonathan Kuminga’s Warriors Complaints Honestly

Jonathan Kuminga made headlines this week when it was reported he no longer trusts Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr with his development after not playing down the stretch in a loss to the Denver Nuggets on Thursday.

Kerr responded the next night by playing Kuminga for a season-high 36 minutes in Golden State’s 113–109 victory over the Detroit Pistons.

After the game, Warriors star Steph Curry addressed the situation, just the latest saga in an exhaustive list of drama at Chase Center this season.

“I’ve been there before,” Curry said of Kuminga to reporters. “He’s not wrong for being upset and pissed off, wanting to play. Probably should’ve played [late against the Nuggets]. Not probably. But the ultimate challenge for anybody in this league is to not let the narrative be told for you and you not be able to address that with your own voice or directly with coach or whatever the case is.”
