Kevin Durant is not at a 'weight-bearing stage' in his recovery
The Oklahoma City Thunder, and the entire NBA for that matter, are anxiously awaiting Kevin Durant's return to the court. They'll have to wait a while longer, as Durant is still slowly traveling on the road to recovery, according to Sam Presti via the Oklahoman.
"'We’re not at a weight-bearing stage, but we’re definitely moving in the right direction and excited about him being back on the floor toward the end of the summer.'"
Durant earlier told a twitter follower that he planned to be back on the court August 1, and while it may not be that exact date, it seems as if he was pretty on-target with his prediction. The Thunder know how crucial this season is for the team, but they won't rush Durant back because of it.
