The Golden State Warriors have confirmed that Ognjen Kuzmic is expected to miss at least six weeks with a fractured hand.

The center underwent surgery to repair a break in his fifth metacarpal sustained when he hit the backboard during the team's loss to the Memphis Grizzlies last week.

The 23-year-old had featured in 10 games this season, averaging 4.1 minutes per game.

The Warriors play the Dallas Mavericks tonight.
