RIO DE JANEIRO — Kevin Durant leads the U.S. men's basketball team in scoring. He’s shooting 60% from the field and 61% on three-pointers.
It’s not like he’s been missing in action.
And yet, he hasn’t been dominant either.
“Sometimes, when you’re in a new environment, you have to figure out where your thing is. It’s called getting accustomed to your teammates. I think he is,” U.S. coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “He had a really good practice (Tuesday). We obviously need him to be the Kevin Durant of Istanbul and London. We’re hoping the medal round brings that out.
