Kevin Durant injury update: Nets star expected to return from sprained MCL next week

Kevin Durant injury update: Nets star expected to return to lineup next week

Brooklyn Nets star forward Kevin Durant is expected to return to the floor next week, Nets coach Steve Nash said on Saturday. Durant has started doing more on-court work recently as he recovers from the sprained MCL he suffered in his left knee last month, and Nash is optimistic about his prognosis moving forward.

“I think with Kevin he’s been a great healer throughout his career,” Nash said. “So the No. 1 thing is to get him back healthy and feeling secure in his health and his body so he can move and be free. When he’s back, obviously he adds a ton to our team on both ends of the floor … one of the greatest scorers of all time. And we also know he helps us defensively; he gives us more size and length. So he’s a big miss for us, and whenever he gets back, he’ll impact our team.”
