Kevin Durant injury update: Steve Nash hopeful star forward returns this week, but it's 'not set in stone'
Durant, who hasn't played since Feb. 13, isn't a sure thing to return this week, according to the Nets head coach
www.cbssports.comHere’s the latest on Kevin Durant’s status:
- Durant has been dealing with a knee issue during the 2026 playoffs and missed Houston’s playoff game recently due to that knee injury, with unclear timetable for his return as of the latest reports. This is the most current update in the surrounding coverage of his playoff status.[1][2]
- Earlier in the season, Durant also missed games due to a left ankle sprain, but that was from a different stretch of the schedule; that injury timeline suggested a short-to-moderate absence depending on imaging and symptom progression.[3][4]
- For the very latest, check the Rockets’ official injury updates and those from major outlets like Sporting News and Yahoo Sports, as they provided the most recent notes on whether he’s cleared for practice or a game.[4][1]
