The Golden State Warriors are set to resume their 2024-25 NBA season tonight, even though the “second half” consists of just 27 games. They’ll begin this stretch with a crucial matchup against the Sacramento Kings. A victory would allow the Warriors to leapfrog the Kings in the Western Conference standings, moving into the ninth seed.
Following the All-Star break, both teams are in relatively good health, setting the stage for a competitive game. Here’s the full injury report for tonight’s contest:
Warriors
**Out** — Jonathan Kuminga (right ankle sprain)
Kuminga will miss his 22nd straight game, and his absence continues to be felt by the Warriors. However, there’s reason for optimism: Kuminga returned to practice this week, signaling that his return is nearing. While he still needs to progress to full-court, five-on-five drills and regain game shape after two months off, it’s possible he could be back on the court as early as next week.
**Out** — Yuri Collins (G League assignment)
Collins, who recently signed his first NBA contract—a 10-day deal with the Warriors—will remain with the Santa Cruz Warriors for now. With the team mostly healthy, the young guard will continue developing in the G League, where he’s spent the entire season (and last year as well). Meanwhile, Kevin Knox, the other player signed to a 10-day contract, will be available for tonight’s game.
Kings
Sacramento has a clean bill of health, with no players listed on their injury report.
Enjoy the game, Dub Nation!
