Kuminga has been in-and-out of the rotation for the Warriors thus far in the first round of their Western Conference playoff series. Kuminga played when star Jimmy Butler was out of the lineup due to a pelvic contusion, but did not play in Game 4 due to a coach's decision with Butler back, and then missed Game 5 with the migraine.

Kuminga averaged 15.3 points and 4.6 rebounds in 47 regular season games for the Warriors this season.
