Kevin Durant will miss a second consecutive playoff game Saturday as he continues to nurse a left calf strain, the team announced.
ESPN's Marc Stein first reported Durant was ruled out for Game 3 against the Portland Trail Blazers after he missed Game 2 for precautionary reasons.
The news comes as a minor surprise, considering Durant appeared on track for an appearance in Game 3 after he participated in practice Friday and was officially listed as questionable.
However, the Warriors have maintained all along that Durant wouldn't be cleared if there was a risk of further damage to his leg.
