The Golden State Warriors travel to Orlando on Tuesday, November 18, to face the Magic at the Kia Center with several key players sidelined.

Jonathan Kuminga (bilateral knee patellar tendonitis) and De’Anthony Melton (left ACL, post-surgery) will not play, while Buddy Hield is listed as probable with a general illness.

Golden State enters the game with a 9-6 record, led by Stephen Curry, who is averaging 27.4 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game. Jimmy Butler continues to be a key contributor with 19.1 points and 4.8 assists.

For the Orlando Magic, Paolo Banchero (left groin strain) and Moritz Wagner (left knee) are out, while Jalen Suggs (right groin) is questionable. Franz Wagner and Jamal Cain are available.

The Warriors’ rotation adjustments will likely see increased minutes for Draymond Green, who averages 7.6 rebounds and 5.7 assists, and Brandin Podziemski, contributing 11.9 points per game. Golden State has been 5-0 at home but 4-6 on the road.

Orlando sits at 7-7 this season, with Franz Wagner averaging 23.1 points and 6.3 rebounds, while Banchero’s absence leaves a scoring gap that could strain the Magic’s offensive efficiency.

Tuesday’s matchup carries implications for both teams as they seek consistency in the early part of the season. The Warriors aim to extend a three-game road win streak, while Orlando looks to improve to .500 at home.
