Golden State Warriors superstar Kevin Durant suffered a right ankle contusion in Sunday's game against the Phoenix Suns, the team announced.
Durant exited after playing 30 minutes, finishing with 25 points, two rebounds and three assists on the night.
Last season, Durant put together another phenomenal campaign for the Warriors, averaging 26.4 points, 6.8 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game. Always an offensive juggernaut, Durant also transformed into an elite rim-protector and defensive presence, posting 1.8 blocks per game, a career high.
He also shot 41.9 percent from three and was named the NBA Finals MVP for a second straight year.
