Hoping for a speedy recovery. Likely going to miss the majority or all of next season though... sucks.

Fecking hell.

It's a shame on Kevin Durant will never return to his previous self.

I don't get the whole prayers up thing. He isn't going to die. that being said I hope he is able to recover from this and play at a high level. It would be nice if someone can come back from this injury and still resemble the player they were before.

Dominique Wilkins ruptured his Achilles and then averaged 30 the next year.

But sadly, he's the only NBA player who didn't become a shell before receiving that nasty Achilles injury.

Warriors don't win game 5 without his huge boost at the beginning. If they come back and win it, that trophy will have KDs blood all over it

Kerr said he won't be 100 percent, but team doctors gave him the go ahead to play.

To be fair, that game was an exhibition more along the lines of Magic Johnson in the 92' All-Star game.
