No contract extension and now fear of injury again. Jonathan Kuminga’s season just got worse. The last time the Warriors and Grizzlies played each other, the Warriors lost by 51 points. Golden State clearly came into this game with a chip on its shoulder. But they have already suffered a decline in attacks, their hopes for revenge have only diminished.

During Saturday’s game, Kuminga attempted a block on Jake LaRavia with 2:27 left in the second quarter. He twisted his ankle awkwardly as he landed on Brandon Clarke’s foot and quickly hobbled off the pitch. He was obviously in pain and went straight to the locker room. Rick Celebrini followed close behind, probably assessing the injury. It didn’t look good and you could feel the tension as he limped away.

Kuminga was on fire, leading the Warriors with 13 points. He shot everything from distance – 4-for-6 from the field, including a perfect 3-for-3 from deep. The guy also did his best at the free throw line, scoring two of four attempts while adding two rebounds and two assists. But of course there are no hiccups in any game – he had four turnovers.

He’s dealing with a right ankle sprain and won’t be back, reports Anthony Slater The athlete. The fall in the first half was pretty brutal and now he’s in the locker room icing it.
