Kevin Durant will make his return to action Wednesday when the Phoenix Suns host the Minnesota Timberwolves. Durant suffered a sprained ankle during warmups ahead of a game against his former team, the Oklahoma City Thunder, and has been out recovering from that injury ever since. He missed almost two months earlier in the season while recovering from an MCL sprain.
Durant has played only three games for the Suns since being traded from the Brooklyn Nets in February. If he plays in all seven of Phoenix’s final games starting with that Wednesday tilt with the Timberwolves, that will boost his Suns total to 10 games.
