The Nets injury report, out Monday, had good news and bad news for fans. While Kevin Durant will sit his fifth straight game with a hamstring strain, Jeff Green and Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot are questionable, meaning there’s a chance they might play in front of fans at Barclays Center vs. the Kings Tuesday. In addition, Iman Shumpert may see action for the first time.
Here’s the full report.
- Tyler Johnson (left adductor tightness) - PROBABLE
- Iman Shumpert (left hamstring strain) - PROBABLE
- Jeff Green (right shoulder contusion) - QUESTIONABLE
- Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot (right hip contusion) - QUESTIONABLE
- Kevin Durant (left hamstring strain) - OUT
- Spencer Dinwiddie (partially torn ACL) - OUT
- Reggie Perry (G League ) - OUT
Although Steve Nash said Sunday that KD’s hamstring was improving at a “rapid rate,” the Nets are being cautious in bringing him back, a luxury the team has because of how well James Harden and Kyrie Irving are holding down the fort while he recovers.
