Kevin Durant removed from activities

Quote:Kevin Durant has been "removed from basketball activities" and could end up being shut down for the season, Oklahoma City Thunder general manager Sam Presti announced Friday.

"He's not making the progress we'd hoped or expected," Presti said.

Kevin Durant's return this season is in doubt due to lingering issues from a Jones fracture.
When asked if Durant was being shut down for the season, Presti said, "Essentially, that's the direction we're headed right now."

It's going to be really interesting to see where this goes. His contract negotiation is about to really heat up.

Sucks for them. While I hate to see players get hurt, the fact that he is out does not bother me.

Jones fracture is a b!tch.

They should have shut him down for the season from the beginning. Hopefully they didn't ruin his career.

That does suck for OKC. Puts a serious dent in their playoff chances. Not sure how far Westbrook can carry them.
