After missing majority of last season, 4-time scoring champion, Kevin Durant, will practice with Team USA this week.
According to his agent, Rich Kleiman of Roc Nation Sports, and his manager, Charlie Bell, the Oklahoma City Thunder star who played just 27 games last season because of a fracture in his right foot plans to practice on Tuesday and Wednesday with Team USA at minicamp in Las Vegas. Durant will not, however, take part in the showcase game on Thursday at UNLV’s Thomas & Mack Center.
The team is taking things slow with Durant, which is wise. However, it’s just a good sign to hear him getting closer to in-game action.
