On Jonathan Kuminga emphasizing ‘power’ as a power forward

In the Golden State Warriors’ much needed 109-105 win over the Phoenix Suns — a game where growth was symbolized by constant displays of power — it was on a typical showcase of finesse and flair by Steph Curry that showed perhaps the biggest indicator of growth for the polarizing Jonathan Kuminga.

Driving inside and drawing two defenders — one of which was former teammate and fellow “OG” Kevin Durant — Curry skips to Kuminga in the corner. Despite making a couple of looks from beyond the arc, Kuminga taking a three in this situation would’ve been something the Suns’ defense would’ve preferred, considering his career mark of 33.
