Jonathan Kuminga

When you run through some of the players who got minutes last season and see who replaced them this season, the Warriors' upgrade is clear.

After missing the last six games, Kuminga had 21 points and 10 rebounds against the Jazz.

This recent stretch, according to Steve Kerr, is "a reminder of how powerful (Green) can be defensively if he gets to roam a little bit."

Playing center is taxing, but Green, who's recently had lower back soreness, knows that's where he needs to be for the Warriors to succeed.

Golden State was the victim of its own careless turnovers, errant passes and constant errors. "They just outplayed us," Steve Kerr said.

The win put Golden State at No. 9 in the Play-In bracket. The next six games dictate whether the Warriors can climb to a better position.

Anthony Vereen draws rave reviews from young players and from veterans like Draymond Green: "This is somebody who wants it."

The confidence within the locker room is growing. The younger layer of the roster continues to elevate when given opportunity.

Golden State has blown leads of 22 and 15 to LA this season. The loss dropped the Warriors to 26-26 overall.

The Warriors beat the Jazz 129-107 on Monday, bumping their record over .500 for the first time since December.

Draymond Green's electricity ignited Golden State's win. His return after an indefinite suspension has turned the Warriors' season around.

Despite an ineffective Steph Curry, his Golden State teammates turned in a complete performance in Philadelphia.

Draymond Green on necessary changes: "When teams are chasing you for 10 years, at some point they're going to figure it out, make it tough."

Kuminga is averaging 20.6 points on 59 percent shooting in January and the trust from coach Kerr has finally arrived.

It's a small sample size, but Jonathan Kuminga is starting to look a lot more like a future Warriors star than a trade-deadline add-on.

On the night they honored their late assistant coach Dejan Milojević, the Warriors received a "confident" performance from Kuminga.

Despite opening the night as a reserve, Kuminga played 30 minutes, scoring a career-high 28 points on 18 shots.
