Warriors Rumors: Players 'Didn't Understand' Why Kevin Durant Didn't Play Game 4

Kevin Durant's continued absence in the NBA Finals has reportedly started to wear on the Golden State Warriors—and not just on the court.

Sam Amick of The Athletic reported "irritation grew" in the Warriors locker room following Game 4's loss to the Toronto Raptors. DeMarcus Cousins, Kevon Looney and Andre Iguodala have been playing through injuries during these Finals, and players "simply didn't understand why [Durant] wasn't there."

Amick added that within the Warriors, expectation was that Game 5 was the earliest Durant could return.
