Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr sparked trade rumors about Jonathan Kuminga with comments about “selfish play” after their 113-103 win over the Timberwolves. During the press conference, Kerr seemed to call out young players, hinting at Kuminga, whose actions caused the game to be delayed by nearly 30 minutes.
Jonathan Kuminga had some fun during warmups, hanging on the rim and blocking teammates’ shots. But his strong grip damaged the net, causing delays in the game. Kuminga might have felt a little embarrassed, but it wasn’t a big deal.
But later, things got serious when coach Steve Kerr called out “young players” for taking too many shots instead of passing the ball. He said, “When you have Steph Curry on your team, you pass the ball. Because — pass it two or three times, the defense is scrambling, all hell breaks loose.”
Steve Kerr added, “So it’s a choice: We can either do that and win games, or we can shoot a whole bunch of 15-foot contested shots in the middle of the shot clock and be a lousy NBA team. It’s up to us, and we are hammering that point home with our team.”
