Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga will be re-evaluated in three weeks after suffering a significant right ankle sprain, the team said Sunday.
Kuminga sustained the injury late in the second quarter of Saturday's 121-113 win over the Memphis Grizzlies when he landed awkwardly in the paint and rolled his right ankle. He left the game immediately after and left Chase Center on crutches following the win. He underwent an MRI on Sunday.
Kuminga has been in the midst of his best career stretch, receiving more opportunity and being utilized as a primary scorer at times. He has averaged 20.5 points over the past 14 games.
The 22-year-old is averaging a career-high 16.8 points and 5 rebounds per game this season. Last month he became the first Warriors player with 30 points or more in consecutive games off the bench since Cazzie Russell in 1974.
