Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant is expected to make his debut for the team on Wednesday in Charlotte against the Hornets, the team announced on Tuesday.
Durant’s first game for Phoenix comes after the blockbuster trade on the night before the trade deadline with the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder, four unprotected first-round picks and a pick swap. The Suns also received forward T.J. Warren.
Since the trade on Feb. 9, Durant has been continuing to progress back from an MCL sprain in his right knee that has kept him out since Jan.
