Durant limped off the court with a non-contact right leg injury during the third quarter of his team’s Game Five battle with Houston Rockets.Despite the Warriors pulling off a 104-99 triumph to take a 3-2 best-of-seven second round series edge, the mood is now one of concern for the two-time defending champions who know their path to another NBA Finals would be substantially tougher without Durant.
A Finals MVP in each of the last two Golden State title runs, Durant entered yesterday’s game averaging 36 points in the first four games of the series and 35.4 points in this year’s postseason. Curry fought through his struggles late yesterday to score 12 fourth-quarter points that helped push the Warriors past Houston.
