Brooklyn Nets: Kobe Bryant gives guidance to Kevin Durant about Achilles injury

The fate of the Brooklyn Nets‘ future hinges upon the return of superstar forward and recent signee, Kevin Durant.

Durant is expected to miss most, if not all, of the 2019-2020 NBA season due to an Achilles tear. Prior to his injury, which occurred during Game 5 of the 2019 NBA Finals, Durant was in the midst of a postseason for the ages, averaging 32.3 points, 4.9 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1 blocks, 1.1 steals on 66.1% true shooting.

In a recent interview, former superstar Kobe Bryant — who tore his Achillies in 2013 — shared his sentiments with ESPN on Durant’s rehabilitation process.
