Golden State Warriors superstar forward Kevin Durant suffered an apparent noncontact injury to his lower leg in Game 5 of his team's NBA Western Conference semifinal playoff series versus the Houston Rockets on Wednesday:
Connor Letourneau of the San Francisco Chronicle reported Durant went to the locker room.
Durant is on his way to becoming one of the most decorated players in NBA history with two championships, two NBA Finals MVP awards, a regular-season MVP and 10 All-Star selections. However, the 30-year-old has dealt with a variety of injuries in recent years, forcing him to miss at least 10 games in four of the past five seasons.
