Durant has injured Achilles, emotional GM says

Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant injured his Achilles tendon in what a highly emotional general manager Bob Myers said was a different injury than the one that kept Durant out for a month before he returned as a starter Monday night.

Myers, while trying to contain his emotions as he sat down for a postgame news conference and then throughout the brief session, said the Warriors "felt good about the process" of clearing Durant to play in the 106-105 win in Game 5 of the NBA Finals, which cut the Toronto Raptors' series lead to 3-2.
