Atlanta has listed Kuminga as questionable due to left knee inflammation and he is in danger of missing his first game since February 22.
If Kuminga is sidelined, Mouhamed Gueye could be in line for an increased role off the bench.
Outside of Kuminga, the rest of the Hawks’ injury report is clean heading into Wednesday’s matchup as they try to pick up a key road victory.

Milwaukee has ruled out Porter Jr. due to right knee swelling as he will miss his first game since February 3.
With Porter Jr. sidelined, Ryan Rollins could be in line to draw a start in his place while Cam Thomas could also have an increased role.
The Bucks have also ruled out Taurean Prince as he continues to recover from neck surgery that he underwent earlier this season.
The good news for the Bucks is that Giannis is officially off their injury report after returning from a calf strain in Monday’s loss.
