Jonathan Kuminga sprained his right ankle and is expected to miss some time


Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga sprained his right ankle in the final minutes of the first half against the Memphis Grizzlies when he fell while trying to block a shot. Coach Steve Kerr is not optimistic about the player's return and expects him to miss some time.  

 

Jonathan Kuminga will undergo an MRI to determine the severity of the injury. Steve Kerr said that in the absence of Jonathan Kuminga, Kyle Anderson will get more playing time.  

 

Steve Kerr said: "This is not an everyday issue, this is a severe sprain and we will have a report soon."  

 

The Golden State Warriors will face the Sacramento Kings in the next round. Jonathan Kuminga entered the game as the Golden State Warriors' second-leading scorer behind Stephen Curry, averaging 16.9 points per game, but only scored 13 points in 15 minutes.  

 

In addition, Steve Kerr said: "Kyle Anderson will fill the vacancy very well, and I am very happy that Kyle Anderson's addition gives the team enough lineup depth to resist some injuries."  

 

Kyle Anderson played for more than 21 minutes and scored 7 points, 3 assists and 3 rebounds. Although his playing time is not stable, Kyle Anderson is very eager to get a chance. Kyle Anderson said: "I have done my work when I am not playing, such as training and preparing. So now I just need to go out and play basketball."  

 

"I've been in that situation two or three times in my career and I've always made the playoff rotation. My goal is to keep improving, support my teammates and when my number is called, just go out and do what I can do."
