'Can't stop him': You won't believe eye-popping stats from Warriors' rising star

Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga is emerging as one of the NBA's most promising young talents. With his impressive athleticism and a versatile offensive skillset, the 21-year-old boasts  one of the highest ceilings among the league's rising stars. 

In Golden State's 134-112 win over Atlanta on Wednesday, Kuminga shot 11-of-11 from the floor, becoming the youngest player in NBA history to record 25 (or more) points on perfect efficiency. 

"You can't stop him," Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said afterward, per The Athletic's Anthony Slater. "He's so powerful."

Now in his third season, the 6-foot-7 Kuminga has posted career-best figures across the board — averages of 14.3 points and 4.4 rebounds and a 53.1 shooting percentage from the field. 

For comparison, in his third season, Milwaukee superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo averaged 16.9 points and 7.7 rebounds and shot 50.6 percent from the floor. However, Antetokounmpo logged 35.3 minutes per game, while Kuminga is averaging just 23.4. 

Kuminga has scored double figures in 21 consecutive games and exceeded 20 points in five straight — all while coming off the bench. Over his past five games, Kuminga is averaging 25.6 points (65 percent from the field and 56 percent from three) and 6.2 rebounds in just 28.4 minutes. 

Per StatMamba, Kuminga is the first Warrior with five consecutive 20-point games off the bench since 1992.

Kuminga's display of athleticism was on full display Thursday in a 134-133 loss to the Sacramento Kings.
