Jonathan Kuminga Likely Out for Early Games Post All-Star Break

Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga is progressing in his rehabilitation from a sprained right ankle sustained on January 4, but he is not expected to return immediately after the official All-Star break. Sources confirm that Kuminga has been actively working on his recovery; however, he has missed 18 consecutive games and will be sidelined for at least the first few games following the league's mid-season showcase.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr reported that while Kuminga has started on-court workouts, the team will evaluate his condition again in ten days. The All-Star Game is scheduled for Sunday in San Francisco, but it is anticipated that Kuminga will not participate in the games that follow.

  • Kuminga last played on January 4 against the Memphis Grizzlies.
  • He is averaging 16.8 points, 5 rebounds, and 2.2 assists in a total of 32 games this season.
  • He has made 10 starts during this campaign.
  • The Warriors currently sit at 26-26, placing them in 11th position in the Western Conference.

Kuminga’s continued absence affects the Warriors’ depth and scoring options. As he progresses, his timing and performance will be evaluated to determine his return to team practices and, eventually, games.
