The great forward, according to Charania, will sit out at least three more games with an injury. On Wednesday, Durant will suit up for the third time since returning from an illness three weeks and twenty days ago.

Durant has made a significant impact in each of Phoenix’s first three games with him on the roster. He has put up impressive numbers in his brief stint with the Suns, averaging 26.7 points, 7.3 boards, 3.7 assists, and 1.3 blocks in his ten games.

The Suns announced in their latest press release that Kevin Durant’s (ankle) recovery time will be updated in three weeks.

It is possible that Durant will play in all six of the Suns’ remaining games if he is given the all-clear after his reevaluation on March 30.

There has been speculation that Durant may not play again this season after the Suns announced Thursday that he will be re-evaluated in three weeks.

Update (Feb. 26): 

Shams Charania of The Athletic says that Kevin Durant of the Phoenix Suns will play his first game of the season on March 1 against the Charlotte Hornets.

Due to a sprained MCL, KD won’t be able to play against the Thunder on Friday or the Bucks on Sunday. However, he is almost ready to return.

Since Durant hasn’t played since January 12, his minutes in his return game will probably be limited, but he should be able to play in the fantasy playoffs.

Update (Feb. 19): 

Durant (knee), who will miss Thursday’s game against the Clippers, told Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com that he expects to return soon after the All-Star break.

Once Durant is healthy enough to play again, he may be limited to a certain number of minutes in Phoenix’s Feb. 24 matchup with the Thunder.
