Today, Warriors reporter Anthony Slater wrote an article analyzing the subtle relationship between Kuminga and the Warriors in the new season.
Kuminga once said: "In this league, he (Butler) is one of the few people who has really experienced what I have experienced. He knows what I am going through."
After a recent home game, Butler invited Kuminga to his home for dinner. During the team's most recent road trip, Butler took Kuminga out again.
Butler said: "I realized that he listened to me and he respected me. I never take that for granted. But I will always tell him the truth. When Kuminga does something that he shouldn't do, I will tell him directly that we can't do this."
Butler said Said: "I think everyone reaches a turning point in their career and you know you can overcome that difficulty. Some people will say 'no, you are not ready'. But you know it in your heart. I think he (Kuminga) is at this stage now, and I have been through it before."
