Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga was injured during his team’s pregame warmups on Thursday night. Kuminga rolled his right ankle while the Warriors warmed up before playing at the Memphis Grizzlies.
NBC Sports Bay Area cameras spotted Kuminga leaving the arena in a walking boot. Kuminga had previously tweaked the ankle in a recent game against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
The second-year forward has been a key rotation player for the Warriors off the bench this season. Kuminga is averaging 9.2 points and 3.3 rebounds in 20.2 minutes per game. His improved passing and defense have been cited by Golden State coaches as key improvements Kuminga has made since his rookie season.
