The Brooklyn Nets continue to deal with injury problems.

Brooklyn’s star forward, Kevin Durant, has been back for a couple of games, but the two-time NBA champion has been sidelined once again.

Durant, 32, had to be helped off the floor with an apparent leg injury during Sunday’s game against the Miami Heat.

“Kevin Durant is out for the remainder of the game due to a left thigh contusion,” the Nets announced on Sunday.

The Nets are easily the most-talented team in the Eastern Conference, though they’ve dealt with several notable absences over the course of the season. Durant has been injured for much of the year and Kyrie Irving has missed several games due to personal reasons.

“We’re kind of used to it now,” Nets coach Steve Nash told ESPN. “We’ve had a lot thrown and us, different lineups. Obviously, we

Warriors’ Draymond Green says getting ejected against Hornets was worse than his 2016 NBA Finals suspension

By Elsie A. Dotson 2 months ago

Draymond Green getting suspended for Game 5 of the 2016 NBA Finals is one of the greatest “what if” moments in recent NBA history, because had he been able to play in that game, perhaps the Warriors don’t blow a 3-1 lead, resulting in the greatest comeback in NBA Finals history which led LeBron James to exclaim “Cleveland this one is for you!” at the top of his lungs in triumph. 

It was a significant moment with monumental consequences for Golden State, so you may understand why it’s surprising that Green feels more upset about being ejected from Saturday night’s game against the Hornets than that suspension in the 2016 NBA Finals.

During the closing seconds of the Warriors-Hornets game, Green was assessed back-to-back technical fouls for arguing with the referees after Charlotte was awarded a timeout — and possession of the ball — while Green and Gordon Hayward were

Draymond Green has never been one to shy away from letting his true feelings on a subject be heard. That’s why it shouldn’t surprise NBA fans that the Golden State Warriors forward went on a rant for the ages following last night’s win over the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Cleveland announced a few days ago that it will sit Andre Drummond until it finds a trade partner. As a result, the talented center had to watch Monday night’s game from the sidelines.

While the Cavaliers are obviously trying to make sure that Drummond doesn’t get hurt, Green pointed out a clear double standard in the NBA.

“To watch Andre Drummond, before the game, sit on the sidelines, then go to the back, and to come out in street clothes because a team is going to trade him is bulls**t,” Green said. “Because when James Harden asked
