Through 24 games, the Nets (17-7) are on top of the Eastern Conference but the minute loads for both of their superstars early in the season have raised concerns.
But the concern doesn’t extend to the players.
Kevin Durant understands his increased minutes — and his injury history — May justify the debate, but he doesn’t want it hold him off the hardwood.
“I know people may be concerned about my minutes and that I got injured before and all this extra sh*t, but we’ll figure that out if I get there. Right now, I want to play basketball,” said Durant on his increased minutes.
