Steve Kerr did not mind Jonathan Kuminga's ejection versus the Portland Trailblazers in preseason, citing the forward's "passion" and "fire."

But there were also five turnovers in just 22 minutes, sometimes trying to do a little too much in a crowd. Brandin Podziemski, who played a lead guard role Sunday, made sure to emphasize that not all of those giveaways were Kuminga’s fault.
