2022 Rising Stars Game: How Jonathan Kuminga Fared for Team Payton

How Kuminga fared in Rising Stars Game for Team Payton originally appeared on NBC Sports Bayarea

Jonathan Kuminga got a taste of NBA All-Star weekend on Friday. 

Though short and sweet, the Warriors 19-year-old rookie stepped foot on the big stage in the NBA All-Star Rising Stars Game at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in Cleveland on Friday night. 

JK finished with two points on 1-of-4 shooting from the field and 0-2 from deep, and dished out an assist in Team Payton’s 50-48 loss to Team Barry. 

Kuminga was a late addition to the squad, replacing Indiana Pacers rookie guard Chris Duarte due to a toe injury. 

His teammates included LaMelo Ball, Scottie Barnes, Ayo Dosunmu, Scoot Henderson, Bones Hyland and Jaden McDaniel.

And even though his All-Star experience was short-lived this time around, we’ll likely be seeing Kuminga a part of All-Star weekend in the foreseeable future.
