More on this storyline
Jorge Sierra: FYI: This is the youngest All-Defensive 1st Team in NBA history (even with Draymond Green in there). Changing of the guard. -via x.com / May 22, 2025
Steve Kerr: It’s a tricky one because Jonathan Kuminga obviously is gifted and wants to play a bigger role and wants to play more. And for me, I’ve been asked to win. And right now, he’s not a guy who I can say I’m going to play 38 minutes with the roster that we have — Steph and Jimmy and Draymond — and put the puzzle together that way and expect to win. -via San Francisco Standard / May 22, 2025
The Draymond Green Show with Baron Davis: “Whether it’s here or somewhere else, he gonna get paid and he gonna have a very bright future.” @Money23Green on Jonathan Kuminga’s future -via Twitter / May 19, 2025
Danny Cunningham: The NBA will release it’s All-Defense team at 2 p.m. this afternoon. Evan Mobley, who was named Defensive Player of the Year a few weeks ago, will be on it. -via Twitter @RealDCunningham / May 22, 2025
Chris Mannix: A Giannis-for-Mobley swap (something @BillSimmons talked about recently) comes up in conversations with agents/NBA front office types. Who says no? Big swing by Cleveland to maximize Mitchell/Garland. Bucks get a franchise big under a long-term deal. Intriguing. -via x.com / May 21, 2025
Michael Scotto: Cleveland Cavaliers President Koby Altman on Defensive Player of the Year Evan Mobley: “We’re going to go as a franchise as Evan is going to go. We’ve had that conversation with Evan… We think we have one of the best big men in the game in Evan Mobley.” -via x.com / May 19, 2025
