KD disputes idea Warriors are better without him

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Golden State Warriors superstar Kevin Durant says he is 'doing better every day,' but acknowledges that he still isn't sure when he'll be able to return as he continues to recover from a strained right calf injury.

Speaking to reporters for the first time since suffering the injury on May 8, Durant also addressed the idea that the team plays better without him -- "that's not facts" -- and the way some still don't see him as a part of the Warriors collective group.

"It's been that way since I got here," said Durant, who seemed both engaged and optimistic about his return to the court at some point in the near future.
