Kevin Durant Listed as Doubtful for Game 6
Houston Rockets forward Kevin Durant (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Game 6 against the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night. This leaves open the possibility that Durant will return from a three-game absence, but ESPN's Shams Charania reported earlier Thursday that the former MVP won't play. Even with Durant sidelined, Houston has won back-to-back games and can extend the series to Game 7 on Friday. Sources have told Charania that Durant's injury typically requires at least two weeks to return to play. Durant hurt his ankle on April 21, meaning 12 days will have passed since his injury by the time a potential Game 7 takes place on Sunday. Reed Sheppard, Jabari Smith Jr., and Tari Eason have greater fantasy significance without Durant.
