Kevin Durant enlisted one of his good buddies to keep his spirits high during his Achilles recovery on Tuesday night ... hitting up an L.A. hot spot together for a night on the town.
Oh yeah ... and that friend is Drake!!!
Of course, KD is still working to get back on the court following the devastating injury he suffered in Game 5 of the NBA Finals last season ... and it's been going VERY well -- the dude is already dunking in pickup games again!!
The Brooklyn Nets superstar stayed busy while his team was in town to play the LA Lakers .
