Could the NBA’s coronavirus hiatus actually benefit the Brooklyn Nets? Well, the break gives Kevin Durant more time to rehab from his Achilles injury, but that doesn’t mean he’s planning on making a triumphant return to the court for the playoffs.
“Honestly, not very realistic from my standpoint, and not even spoken about,” Durant’s business partner Rich Kleiman said via ESPN.
This clashes with Kleiman’s earlier comments about Durant’s rehab. On Feb. 29, Kleiman told Ben Golliver of the Washington Post that a return for the Tokyo Olympics was a possibility.
