Injury Report: Key Player Receives Updated Status in Clippers vs. Warriors Game

After missing the last three games, Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga has been upgraded to probable for Wednesday night's game vs. the LA Clippers. Kuminga has been sidelined with an ankle injury, but seems on track to make his return for this game against the Clippers.

With Kuminga on track to return, the Warriors will still be without Andre Iguodala, Andrew Wiggins, Ryan Rollins, and Gary Payton II. The Clippers will be mostly healthy, as Norman Powell is their only injury absence.

This is a massive game for both teams, as both seeding and tiebreaker implications are on the line. The Clippers and Warriors are currently tied for the 5th seed in the Western Conference, and this is the last time they will face off in the regular season. The Warriors currently hold a 2-1 edge over the Clippers in the season series, and would clinch the tiebreaker with a win on Wednesday. If the Clippers were to even the series at two games a piece, the tiebreaker would ultimately be determined by division record - or conference record if the division record ended up tied as well. 

Needless to say, this is a very important game for both the Clippers and Warriors. The stars will be out in Los Angeles, as Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, Steph Curry, and Klay Thompson will all be available.
