The Golden State Warriors have faced rising injury concerns over the past week, but there could be reinforcements on the way in the form of potentially imminent returns for a pair of key players.
Jonathan Kuminga will miss his seventh-straight game against the Houston Rockets on Wednesday due to knee tendinitis, while De'Anthony Melton is yet to debut this season as he recovers from the torn ACL he suffered in November last year.
However, both players are ramping up their recovery ahead of a hopeful return to the floor in the coming weeks, with the Warriors announcing on Wednesday that they have assigned Kuminga and Melton, along with young forward Gui Santos, to Santa Cruz in order to scrimmage with the G League program.
