Kuminga and Butler Cleared to Play as Warriors Prepare for Lakers Clash

As the Golden State Warriors prepare for their 2025-26 regular-season opener against the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday, they have received some positive injury news. While Moses Moody will be sidelined with a calf injury, both Jonathan Kuminga and Jimmy Butler have been upgraded to probable for the game.

Kuminga and Butler had been listed as questionable due to ankle injuries, but they participated in practice on Monday, including half-court work to get ready for the Lakers. Their availability will provide much-needed depth for the Warriors' rotation, as they will also be missing De'Anthony Melton and recently waived guard Seth Curry.

The Warriors will take on Luka Doncic and the Lakers at the Crypto.com Center in Hollywood on Tuesday night, kicking off the 2025-26 NBA regular season. With Kuminga and Butler likely to suit up, the Warriors will have a stronger lineup to face the challenge of the Lakers in their season opener.
