The Nets (27-13) will be without superstar forward Kevin Durant (isolated MCL sprain) for at least two weeks, roughly six games. On the promising side, Durant’s injury - the same injury that cost him 21 games last season - is not deemed to keep him out that long this time around.
According to Adrian Wojnarowski and Brian Lewis, there’s optimism that this injury is a less severe injury, unlikely to sideline him for more than a month. Regardless, Durant is slated to be re-evaluated in two weeks. The question remains how well can Brooklyn survive without their 29.
