Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant has been upgraded to probable for the first time in almost two months. He first injured his hamstring against the Golden State Warriors on February 13th. It was thought that the injury was not too serious and that Durant would return in about a week but as the days went out the strain seemed more serious than we thought.
Now the Nets are dealing with the injury bug yet again. They are without players like James Harden, Tyler Johnson and Landry Shamet. With Durant expected to return on Wednesday against the Pelicans, things just got more interesting for this squad.
Kevin Durant is averaging 29 PPG, 7.3 RPG and 5.3 APG on 52% shooting which ties a career high. He’s also shooting a scary 43% from three this season, which is also a career high.
Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant is expected to return Wednesday vs. New Orleans after missing nearly two months with hamstring strain. He is listed probable to play.
