Overview
- The NBA injury report lists Jonathan Kuminga out for Friday’s rematch in San Antonio with bilateral knee tendinitis.
- He left Wednesday’s win before halftime due to soreness and did not return, with Gary Payton II taking his second‑half minutes.
- ESPN’s Anthony Slater reports no structural knee problems and describes the timeline as relatively short-term.
- Kuminga came off the bench Wednesday for the first time this season as Golden State favored a small-ball look for spacing.
- Friday marks the Warriors’ second NBA Cup group game, and local reporting describes Kuminga’s status as day-to-day with a possible return Sunday.
