Jonathan Kuminga’s tenure with the Atlanta Hawks is off to an impressive start. Since being traded to the Hawks from the Golden State Warriors at the NBA trade deadline, the former G League Ignite product has scored 17 points or more in each of three games with the Hawks, including a season-high 27 points in his debut against the Washington Wizards last week.
Kuminga continued his show for Atlanta on Sunday, showcasing his superior athleticism with multiple dunks at the rim against the Portland Trail Blazers.
