The thing that the borough of Brooklyn has feared the most just happened, and I’m not talking about the Chitauri raining fire upon the City. In a 120-105 win over the New Orleans Pelicans the Nets still lost, as Kevin Durant exited the game in the second quarter with a left knee injury.
The organization announced the following morning that Durant had suffered a “sprained medial collateral” [MCL] in his left knee. Though the Nets didn’t provide a timeline for his return, ESPN’s Adrian Wojaronwski dropped a bomb, saying the Slim Reaper would be out for four to six weeks.
