Respectively arriving at Golden State in 2011 and 2009, Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry therefore embody the franchise more than anyone else at the moment. One of their young teammates therefore surprised us by being very directive with them on the floor.

If one has clearly no longer appeared in his prime for several months, the other continues to impress with his performances despite his 35 years. Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry still remain teammates at the moment, playing their 13th joint campaign this season at Golden State. Enough to give them a certain leadership within the locker room, but also on the field.

Jonathan Kuminga’s viral behavior with Curry and Klay

As the Warriors’ executives and main offensive threats, Curry and Thompson often tend to receive the ball from their teammates. Most of the time, the latter are even called upon to play for them and create as much space as possible for them, in particular using screens.

However, on Tuesday, against the Celtics, the roles were reversed between the two backcourt stars… and Jonathan Kuminga:

Kuminga really just told Klay AND Steph what to do?!

At just 21 years old, Kuminga has already had the chance to spend two full seasons alongside Steph and Klay. He therefore necessarily had time to create bonds as well as a certain alchemy with them on the floor.

However, seeing him take the reins of the attack in this way and orchestrate the movements of his two leaders surprised more than one. Many Internet users have commented on this sequence:

The nerve, the audacity

He said THIS IS MY TEAM NOW! lol

Given the positive outcome of this action, it is impossible to blame Jonathan Kuminga for anything. Seeing him show so much confidence alongside Steph Curry and Klay Thompson even appears to be a good sign for the Warriors.
