Kerr before the game: Kuminga has been locked into the starting lineup, and he has good chemistry with Green Butler

October 29 Today in the NBA regular season, the Warriors defeated the Clippers back-to-back 98-79 at home. During the pre-game interview, head coach Cole said that Kuminga has locked in the team's starting lineup and will be responsible for guarding Harden today.

"He will start tonight and will be our starter going forward," Kerr told reporters, "His performance was very good. Last night we asked him to guard the Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant, and tonight he will face James Harden. I think he is ready to assume this defensive role."

"And on the offensive end, his decision-making ability and shot selection have been greatly improved. You can hardly see him shooting that kind of 1 with half the shot clock left. A 7-foot pull-up jump shot. Now he is playing more purposefully: passing the ball to Jimmy (Butler) and Stephen (Curry), and at the same time actively attacking the basket. "

In the first four games of this season, Kuminga started all games, averaging 18 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists, and his shooting percentage was 58.1%. He has a good run-in with Butler and Green.

"Last year, the combination of Jimmy, Draymond and Kuminga did not perform well," Kerr continued. "But because he has made progress in all aspects - whether it is passing ability or the (offensive improvements) I just mentioned, now this combination finally has a chemical reaction. So we will continue to use this starting lineup."
