Warriors' Jonathan Kuminga: Sheds walking boot

Kuminga (ankle) wasn't wearing a walking boot Wednesday but remains in the middle stages of his recovery, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Kuminga suffered a significant lateral right ankle sprain Jan. 4 and was set for re-evaluation three weeks after the injury. He had been wearing a walking boot since but was spotted Wednesday without it for the first time. Kuminga is still not close to returning, and the update doesn't necessarily mean he's ahead of schedule. However, it's worth noting he has been making progress in his recovery.
