Cole: Kumingga s template is Marion, his current stage is very similar to Gordon in the Magic Period

May 23rd News About Jonathan Cumingga's future is still uncertain, but Warriors head coach Steve Cole recently said in an interview that he believes Cumingga needs to be a player like Sean Marion.

Cole said: "I always think that JK (Kuminga) should be the type of player like Sean Marion. I mentioned it before, and it is a very appropriate analogy. I said in his rookie season that he has the athletic ability: running all over the game, putting pressure on the basket, attacking rebounds, standing at the bottom line to catch a cut-in player's pass and dunk, and being able to switch to anyone on the defensive end. For me, he is born to be suitable for this role. We have been guiding him in this direction."

Regarding Kuuminga's current situation, Cole believes that he needs to be more patient, and he also believes that Aaron Gordon's experience in the Magic.

Cole said: "I think for young players, he realized that the process of transformation took time. Aaron Gordon is a good example. During his years in Orlando, he wanted to be a scorer and core player, and he did achieve some results, just like JK is now, but maybe it wasn't until later that he really found his position and how he played."
