Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga has scored in double figures in each of the last three games without Steph Curry in the lineup

The Golden State Warriors will need to play a near-perfect game on Wednesday to stave off elimination. Without Steph Curry in the picture, the Warriors have a daunting task ahead of them as they look to secure a road win against the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 5 of their second-round NBA playoffs series.

While it's a big deal for Jonathan Kuminga that the Golden State Warriors have once again begun to trust him as a genuine on-court option, it's almost as big of a deal for one NBA media member who's been banging the drum on the young Dubs wing for some time: the Ringer's Zach Lowe.
