Jeff McDonald: Pop says it is “mandated” that Victor Wembanyama be on a minutes restriction and not play in back-to-backs for “a couple weeks.” At that point, Wemby will get another MRI on his ankle and the medical staff will determine if there should be changes to the protocol.

Andrew Greif: Ty Lue said Kawhi Leonard’s hip injury was a reaggravation of a fall he suffered earlier in December in Utah that he’d played through. Kawhi isn’t cleared to participate in practice yet, Lue said, adding he worked out post-practice yesterday.

Side note: Though I’ve said in the past that the Warriors might be reluctant to trade Andrew Wiggins so soon after he signed a relatively bargain-rate contract extension specifically so he could remain with this team, I’ve since heard that this would not be a major barrier for the Warriors to explore Wiggins’ trade market. Especially if he can’t play with Kuminga and the Warriors decide that Kuminga is their full-time small forward.
