Don't know exactly but KD was surgically repaired so I think once he recvers from surgery he is fine. The franchise is very conservative w injuries normally so I don't worry about it much.

I agree. Maybe mcgary fractured his foot as opposed to the small bone/jones fracture of kd. And also being that hes a big man, more weight, more chance of recurring easily

I hope both guys are 100% healthy. Don't want to rush them back so soon, and end up like Derrick Rose/Noah( No disrespect to Bulls fan, but it's true..).

I just hope that Brooks won't play them 45 minutes a night once they get back.

Doubt 45 but do not think they will continue to play this poor. The problem is while ISO works with KD and Westbrook, it does not with Reggie Jackson or Jeremy Lamb (bad shooters). They are 3-11 because no system was set up for the team to succeed. I am going to predict a 56-26 record if they return by next week.

I find this highly unlikely.

Even assuming Durant and Westbrook return for the next game, which is very unlikely as well, and from then on out the Thunder match their best season which had a win percentage of 73%. They would go 49-18 in the remaining stretch. That puts the final record at 52-30.

The year OKC had a win percentage of 73 percent, they posted the best Ortg and Drtg of any season so far. Also the team was extremely healthy by NBA standards, with Kevin Martin missing the most games of the key guys at 5. Durant played 38.5 mpg and Westbrook 35. I doubt they play that many minutes this season. I just don't see them matching that 73% win percentage let alone beating it.

One of my favorite players in the Association. The OKC comeback begins now.
