Nets coach Steve Nash said that Kevin Durant has “a good chance” to rejoin the team for Thursday’s game against the Sixers once he clears health and safety protocols. Kyrie Irving, however, may need some more time.
Durant and Irving were placed in the protocols on Dec. 18, joining a handful of Nets players that also included James Harden, who returned for the Christmas Day win over the Lakers.
When asked whether Durant will return team when the Nets return to Brooklyn after Monday’s game against the Clippers, Nash appeared optimistic.
“I think there’s a good chance Kevin will be,” Nash told ESPN on Monday.
