For Wednesday’s game, the Warriors have announced that they will be without Porzingis.

He has been ruled out on the injury report.

ESPN’s Anthony Slater wrote: “Kristaps Porzingis will sit tomorrow night vs the Spurs. Hasn’t been cleared for both sides of back-to-backs yet. De’Anthony Melton out with a thumb strain. Gui Santos and Gary Payton II questionable. Warriors face Cavaliers on Thursday.”

Porzingis is currently averaging 17.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.3 blocks per contest while shooting 45.7% from the field and 36.0% from three-point range in 11 games for the Warriors.

He was traded to Golden State last month (via the Atlanta Hawks).
