Kevin Durant (ankle) officially questionable for Suns
Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant (ankle) is officially listed as questionable for Wednesday versus the Minnesota Timberwolves.
What It Means:
Despite the questionable tag, Durant is expected to return from a 10-game absence on Wednesday night. Torrey Craig will likely move back to the Suns' bench and there will be fewer scoring opportunities for Chris Paul and Deandre Ayton. Josh Okogie could also lose playing time. The Suns haven't mentioned any type of minutes limit for Durant in his first game back.
KD has a $9,400 salary on Wednesday’s 10-game slate and numberFire's models project him for 38.9 FanDuel points over 30.4 minutes. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Suns’ implied total is 120.25 and the game total is tied for second-highest of the day at 235.5.
