Durant suffers NBA injury, and Suns roster sends message

Kevin Durant got injured before the match Suns against Oklahoma City Thunder. The two teams met last Wednesday night, the 8th, and Phoenix came out with a 132-101 victory, but could not count on its main signing for the season.

After the Suns’ victory against the Thunder, Monty Williams opened the game about Kevin’s injury. The coach did not hide his frustration at not being able to count on one of his main stars for the match against Oklahoma and revealed Durant’s great apprehension with the injury. According to the Phoenix coach, everyone felt bad about the athlete’s injury.

I feel bad for him because he feels bad. I’ve seen his face and – I’ve been around him so many times – I know what he’s feeling and I don’t want him to feel that way.“, said the Suns coach.

Who also lamented the absence of Kevin Durant against the Thunder was Chris Paul. According to him, everyone was anxious to see the ace play in his new home: “In this league you have been around for some time, you realize that some people like to play. Some people love to play games. Kev is one of those people who love to make baskets. Obviously, knowing this was going to be their first home game, we were all excited.“.

In addition to Monty Williams and Chris Paul, another one who sent strength to Kevin Durant was Booker. The Suns star sent a message to the new player on the team and highlighted his performance against the Thunder: “Let’s reschedule the party. I’m sure they’ll be back, the people they lost tonight. I tried to give them a little something to make it better“.
