Kevin Durant Fully Cleared For Camp, Playing 5-On-5 Already
Appearing on ESPN radio’s Freddie Coleman Show, Green singled out Thunder superstar forward Kevin Durant.
After a forgettable and injury-plauged 2014-15, Kevin Durant is officially cleared with no restrictions. Durant has won the scoring title in four of the last six seasons and beyond his scoring has become a terrific all-around player. “With that said, as any of our players coming off injury, we’re going to be watching and managing practice, recovery time; we’re going to be watching”. Im happy for him because hes been so committed and so disciplined.. “But as far as limitations, he doesn’t have any”.
“He feels great. Looks great”.
Kevin Durant is healthy and back as a full participant in Oklahoma City Thunder training camp.
Durant averaged 25.4 points, 6.6 rebounds and 4.1 assists last season.
The Thunder will certainly be careful with Durant as he works his way back into game shape, and the team may watch his minutes this upcoming season after playing huge minutes his entire career. Durant has averaged 38 minutes per game in his eight National Basketball Association seasons so it isn’t unreasonable to think that might drop a little bit this year. Though, other than LeBron, Durant was one of the most durable players in the league ever since he came in. For now though the news is all good as Durant will be able to go full speed next week when training camp begins. Probably. You also have to factor in where you want be at a certain point and where the schedule is and where there are opportunities to take some time..
