Warriors' Kevin Durant (knee) cleared to return Saturday
Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant (knee) has been medically cleared for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans.
What It Means:
The Warriors have already clinched the best record in the NBA (and home-court advantage through the playoffs), so while they won't likely give their starters tons of minutes, look for Durant to see the floor with the rest of the starting five as Steve Kerr ensures they're on the same page heading into the playoffs.
Durant has averaged 25.3 points, 8.2 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.6 blocks per game in his first season with the Warriors. He ranks fourth in the NBA with a 16.8 nERD on the year.
