What happened to Lauri Markkanen?

Lauri Markkanen's ongoing discomfort has been validated by an MRI, affirming that he has exacerbated his prior right shoulder impingement.

hat happened to Jonathan Kuminga?

Jonathan Kuminga was absent from Friday's game against the Pelicans, with Coach Steve Kerr citing significant pain as the reason for his absence. Kerr had indicated earlier on Friday his intention to rest several pivotal rotation players, and Kuminga, who was grappling with a pelvis issue, could be among those considered for a maintenance day.

Kuminga suffered a groin injury during the game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He was promptly evaluated by medical staff and Kerr, who decided against risking further injury by keeping him out of the game.
