Unlocking the Hidden Gem: Which Top Restricted Free Agent Could Change the Game?
No. 3: Jonathan Kuminga (DRIP: -2.1)
Kuminga isn’t too different from Thomas in that he is a supremely gifted scorer who struggles in the other facets of the game.
In the four playoff games against the Minnesota Timberwolves after Stephen Curry tweaked his hamstring, Kuminga averaged 24.3 points against the sixth-best defense in the league.
Where Kuminga differs from Thomas, and the reason he’s ranked ahead of him, is his size. Kuminga is nearly five inches taller and longer in terms of wingspan. Fortune favors the bold, and basketball favors the tall. While Kuminga isn’t a good defender right now, his ceiling as a defender is much higher than Thomas’s thanks to his physical tools.
