The Golden State Warriors have struggled to find a solution to their poor performance in the NBA season.
As a result, the Warriors have remained the 12th seed in the Western Conference for the majority of the season.
However, the Warriors played well against the Memphis Grizzlies during their Friday night matchup.
While the entire Warriors team had an excellent night, Jonathan Kuminga, in particular, was the star of the show.
Kuminga had 29 points, 6 rebounds, and 4 assists in 37 minutes of playing time vs. the Grizzlies.
After seeing Kuminga’s sensational performance against the Grizzlies, NBA analyst Kendrick Perkins shared his reaction to it via his official Twitter handle.
“Steve Kerr finally came to his senses!” Perkins tweeted.
Steve Kerr finally came to his senses!!! Let this young fella be great. Carry the hell on… https://t.co/tFd2nOly9J

Perkins’ tweet featured how Warriors head coach Steve Kerr has finally come to his senses as he is allowing the former seventh overall pick to play his natural game.
To be honest, Perkins’ comments aren’t invalid.
After all, for the first two years of his career, Jonathan Kuminga played limited minutes under the coaching of Steve Kerr.
However, Steve Kerr is finally allowing Kuminga to become a star, and it will ultimately help the Warriors in the long run.
To put things into perspective, Kuminga has scored more than 20 points in his last eight games of the season.
As a result, the Warriors have improved their record to 21-24.
While the Warriors can be much better, it’s still good to see the organization get back in rhythm behind their young forward’s elite performances.
