Kevin Durant Out Against Indiana
2 years agoBrooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant (knee) won't play on Saturday against Indiana. According to the league's official injury report, the veteran is out for right knee injury management. However, considering the amount of work Durant has logged this year, including 36 minutes in Friday night's win over Atlanta, he's likely just getting a night off to rest. Yuta Watanabe (hamstring), who's missed the previous 10 games, may take Durant's place in the lineup. Watanabe has averaged 8.1 points while sinking 57% of his tries from deep this season. He has an excellent chance to be a top performer versus the Pacers, even more so since Kyrie Irving (adductor), Ben Simmons (knee), T.J. Warren (foot), Joe Harris (ankle), Seth Curry (hamstring), and Nicolas Claxton (hamstring) are out as well.
