Jonathan Kuminga of the Golden State Warriors earned a lot of attention in the 2023-24 season and his brand new look might get him even more in 2024-25.
Just weeks to go before the first game, Kuminga has changed his hair and beard color, choosing to go with a stark orange look reminiscent of Dennis Rodman from the 1990s.
Courtside Buzz showed off Kuminga’s hair on X and fans are expecting to see a lot of it in the months ahead.
Kuminga just had the best season of his career.
After a slow and quiet start, Kuminga and Warriors head coach Steve Kerr put together a plan that gave the star player a lot more time to shine.
In the end, he averaged 16.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 2.2 assists per game, averaging 52.9% from the field.
The front office knew they had someone special and postseason reports stated Kuminga was considered untouchable.
He was the third-best scorer on the team last season, behind just Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry.
With Thompson now gone to the Dallas Mavericks, Kuminga could become the team’s second option for 2024-25.
He will work closely with Curry, Draymond Green, and the rest of the team to help the Warriors perform better than they did last season.
They didn’t even reach the playoffs but made only a few minor adjustments in the summer.
There are many concerns about the Warriors for the season ahead but there are also some things to be excited about.
Because of his upward trajectory last season, many people expect big things from Kuminga this season and they are hoping he builds on the success he recently found.
