In the two weeks since Kevin Durant popped his right Achilles tendon, dramatically changing his career arc as well as the gravity of the NBA’s upcoming free agent signing period, he has yet to proffer a statement of substance.

Ric Bucher, radio.com sports NBA insider, dropped by 95.7 The Game on Friday, with a take that probably surprises no one.
“What I’ve heard through various places, is that (Durant) is not really happy with how things went down because of the injury,” Bucher told hosts Matt Steinmetz and Brian Scalabrine.
