OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) 鈥� Kevin Durant missed the Phoenix Suns' game Wednesday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder because of a sprained left ankle.
Durant, the 36-year-old All-Star forward who has been the subject of trade speculation, is averaging 26.9 points 6.1 rebounds and 4.2 assists. He's 26 points short of 30,000 for his career and could have reached the milestone against the franchise he started with.
鈥淗e twisted it a couple times in the fourth quarter the other night and just 鈥� he鈥檚 sore," Suns coach Mike Budenholzer said. "He can鈥檛 go. It鈥檚 impressive that he finished the other night, and we鈥檙e hoping that it鈥檚 short term.鈥�
