4 years agoBrooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant (Achilles) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Nets have been playing Durant heavy minutes each night, so giving him and his Achilles a break in a game that should be winnable without Durant makes sense, even if it's a bit surprising that he was ruled out despite this game not being part of a back-to-back set. The last time Durant didn't play, Kyrie Irving scored 38 points. This should lead to more Jeff Green contributions as well.--Justin Carter - RotoBaller
