Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant nearly didn't play for Team USA.
PHOENIX -- Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant was a question mark for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris after missing all five of Team USA's exhibition matches with a strained calf.
"When you're going through a rehab, especially when you want it to happen pretty quickly," Durant said. "You've got a short amount of time together. There were days I had good days and then I had a little setback here and there. I was nervous a little bit." "The other day when we scrimmaged, right after that, I felt great," Durant said. "Right after I scrimmaged, I felt good. No pain. I was able to get up the next day and had a regular routine. So I knew I'd be able to play.""I obviously coached Kevin for three years and maybe more than any player I've ever been around, when he comes back from a long absence, you don't notice it," said Kerr.
