It will be Kuminga’s third consecutive missed game due to the injury.

Kuminga, 23, missed the second half of Golden State’s win over the San Antonio Spurs last Wednesday due to knee soreness. The Warriors don’t expect Kuminga to miss an extended period of time, but the team is being cautious.

Golden State is 3-1 on its current road trip with a back-to-back remaining against the Magic on Tuesday and ending against the Miami Heat on Wednesday.

The fifth-year forward is averaging 13.8 points per game, the third-highest average on the team.

Kuminga started in 12 of his 13 games played during the 2025-26 NBA season. He was moved to the bench as coach Steve Kerr made a lineup change amid a 2-5 skid.
