Warriors' Kevin Durant (thigh) expects to play Saturday against 76ers
Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant said that he expects to play against the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday, according to ESPN's Chris Haynes.
What It Means:
Durant sat out Wednesday's game with a left thigh contusion, but it appears that it will only be a one-game absence. If, for some reason, he's unable to go by Saturday, Andre Iguodala would probably draw another start as Patrick McCaw and Nick Young pick up extra minutes off the Warriors' bench.
Averaging 46.3 FanDuel points on the season, Durant is projected for 49.2 FanDuel points in Saturday's matchup against the 76ers.
