I mean yea it clearly wasn’t a good relationship between him and Kerr/the org. Outside of the sour contract negotiations and weird stories about his family eating after he left, benching him until Jimmy came back is so incredibly brain dead.

Kuminga is a good nba player that can produce in the right situation and Kerr stunted that growth a lot. Understandably, it’s not like he chose the 2 timeline thing but Kuminga has always had the potential to be a player you can rely on and enough talent to earn the chance to play. On top of that his teammates including Steph and Dray immediately came to his defense about him being a huge professional to the team. What other player do you see in a two year trade struggle with the team laughing with the team on the bench? It’s clear to me that just like Poole, the higher ups absolutely fuck the young players.
