Even Warriors owner Joe Lacob has seemingly turned on Jonathan Kuminga

SFGATE sports

Key Points:

  • Jonathan Kuminga has reportedly lost the support of Warriors owner Joe Lacob, who was previously his biggest advocate within the organization.
  • Kuminga’s inconsistent playing time and strained relationship with the team have led to his reduced presence at practices and reluctance to engage with the media.
  • The situation escalated after a mysterious injury ruled Kuminga out shortly before a game on January 2, causing visible irritation from Lacob when questioned by reporters.
  • Following these developments, Kuminga has officially requested a trade, marking a significant low point in his tenure with the Warriors.
  • It remains uncertain if the trade request will materialize into an actual deal, as the team and player navigate this ongoing conflict.
