Reigning MVP Kevin Durant |
Over the weekend, troubling news circulated through the basketball world: Kevin Durant had been hurt and expected to miss time. Since the initial reporting, it has since
been clarified as a fractured foot. A tenative six to eight week time table for recovery has been given, but the reigning MVP will have to most likely wait through the first month to two months of the season before getting a chance to defend that title. The Thunder still have Russel Westbrook, one of the best players in the NBA, and he might be
ready to explode with this opportunity to run the team while Durant gets
himself healthy. More than anything, if you are the Thunder, the most
important piece of this to manage and take cautiously is Durant's recovery.
