Is Kevin Durant Playing Tonight vs Thunder? Suns Release Injury Report for Their Newest All-Star

The Pheonix Suns are back in business. After going through a rough patch when Devin Booker and Chris Paul were injured, they made a huge move at the trade deadline. They acquired the services of 13x All-Star Kevin Durant. Making a trade for him at the deadline, the Suns pushed themselves back into contention talks.

At the time of the trade, Durant was out with an MCL injury that had him sidelined since mid-January. He played his first game for the Suns last week, when they took on the Charlotte Hornets. So far he’s played three games with his new team, all of which have resulted in wins.

Durant’s averaging 26.6 points, 7.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 1.3 blocks with the Suns so far. As they prepare to host the Thunder tonight, fans wonder whether KD will suit up for his first home game with the team?
