Warriors’ Kevin Durant out at least 4 weeks
WASHINGTON — The Warriors’ pursuit of an NBA title absorbed a possibly serious setback Wednesday, when the team announced that forward Kevin Durant will miss at least four weeks with a sprained medial collateral ligament and a bone bruise in his left leg.
Durant is out indefinitely and will be re-evaluated in four weeks. That means March 29 is the soonest he could return, at which point there will be eight games left in the regular season. The hope is that Durant will play again before the playoffs.
“I know none of these guys are happy now because they care for Kevin, and they want to see him on the court,” general manager Bob Myers said. “He’ll do his best to get healthy.”
