Jonathan Kuminga is set to rejoin the Warriors on a new reported two-year contract after his restricted free agency summer.
The Golden State Warriors have re-signed forward Jonathan Kuminga, it was announced Tuesday. Per team policy, terms of the agreement were not released.
Kuminga, 22, averaged 15.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 24.3 minutes over 47 games (10 starts) with the Warriors last season. In eight playoff games, Kuminga averaged 15.3 points per game on 48.4% from the field and 40.0% from 3-point range, scoring at least 20 points in each of the team’s last three games—including a playoff career-high 30 points in Game 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals against Minnesota.
Kuminga averaged 14.9 points per game in his 37 regular season appearances as a reserve last season, the fourth-highest scoring average among reserves in the league (minimum 30 games). Kuminga was one of only five players in the NBA to post multiple 30-point games off the bench last season and became the fifth player in franchise history to do so in a single season, joining Cazzie Russell (1973-74), Purvis Short (1979-80 & 1981-82), Šarūnas Marčiulionis (1991-92) and Jordan Poole (2022-23).
Selected by the Warriors with the seventh overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, Kuminga owns career averages of 12.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 22.0 minutes in 258 games (84 starts) over four years with Golden State. A member of the Warriors’ 2022 NBA championship team, he has appeared in 34 career playoff games, averaging 7.0 points and 1.6 rebounds in 11.4 minutes.
