Christmas Day shooting woes for Stephen Curry continued on Monday as he finished with just eight points and a 120-114 road loss to the Denver Nuggets, who outscored the Golden State Warriors by 26 points while the two-time NBA MVP was on the court. Even though Jonathan Kuminga was almost always the bench player, he managed to play a few minutes today and seemed to be as unbeatable as he had claimed after the game.

To give the Golden State Warriors another playmaker, Steve Kerr is willing to experiment with different lineup combinations. Despite playing more minutes than Jonathan Kuminga, Andrew Wiggins is having the worst season. Kuminga is understandably annoyed because he didn’t know why he was benched so frequently during the Christmas game against the Denver Nuggets. Despite this, he upheld his standards through words showing some of his abilities.

I’ma keep it real with you. Me with the ball, nobody guarding me.

It was obvious that The Nuggets couldn’t stop him, especially given how they were stopping Stephen Curry. Kuminga had 13 points through three quarters on 4 of 8 shots. He had the Nuggets reeling after going 5-for-8 from the free-throw line.

With 13 points, five rebounds, two assists, and just one turnover on 4-of-8 shooting from the field in the defeat, Kuminga accomplished some of those unique things. Nevertheless, off the bench, Andrew Wiggins was spot on, scoring a team-high 22 points on 7 of 11 shots.
