The Golden State Warriors are set to visit the Orlando Magic on February 27, looking to extend their strong run of form. It’s a game they should be able to win comfortably, given their recent performances. They will be coming off a thumping 128-92 victory against the Charlotte Hornets.
However, they will once again be without their star power forward Jonathan Kuminga, who continues to recover from an ankle injury. Kuminga has been an essential piece for the Warriors this season, averaging 16.8 points, five rebounds, and 2.2 assists in 32 games before his injury. But the talented forward has now missed 24 straight games since spraining his right ankle on January 4 against the Memphis Grizzlies.
Latest Update On Kuminga’s Recovery
There had been hope that Kuminga could return during the Warriors’ upcoming five-game road trip, but he remains out for now. Anthony Slater of The Athletic provided the latest update on X (formerly Twitter), saying:
“Jonathan Kuminga will remain out in Orlando tomorrow night to open the Warriors’ road trip. Still waiting on the final Rick Celebrini green light. He’s been scrimmaging. At the final stage of return from an ankle injury. Middle of road trip a possibility.”
