Nets superstar Kevin Durant had suffered a sprained MCL in his left knee, during the Nets’ winning clash with New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday. Brooklyn later reported that KD would be out for a while with no definite date of return, Nets just confirmed that the star would undergo a period of rehabilitation.
As per the experts, the 11-time All-Star might miss about four to six weeks of action and a realistic date of his comeback is around Feb. 18-23 but Nets might choose to rest the player for a longer duration to err on the side of caution. The only good news was that the injury was not more serious than imagined and he would be back in time for the Nets playoff run later this season.
