looks like what happened to Shaq. He was just running back on defense when he looked at his achilles as is something hit him.

Hope he is okay.

injury not good for his free agency if it is a ruptured Achilles.

He's Kevin Durant. Still think he'll get paid.

If its a rupture though, he may just opt in to his last year with GSW.

Well good for him if he has a player's option.

They're saying it's a "calf sprain". He will not return to the game.

Gotta say I'm dubious. Didn't look like a calf strain

He does for $31.5m

He's still not out of the woods. They could just be keeping it in house until they know more.

Potentially good news for him, but could still really hurt the Warriors for the series.

that thought crossed my mind.... just reminds me so much about Shaq's injury the way he looked back like something hit him.

grade 3 calf strain takes three months to heal, a 2 takes six weeks, and a 1 about 10 days. Curry time for Warriors and he is more then capable.

If its achilles, Knicks and Clippers lost out big time.

I think that's premature when it's not even been 20 minutes of game time since it's happened. Injuries in-game tend to demoralise a team or stir them in my experience.

Give D'Antoni home-court and time to strategise for GSW without KD and I think it's different
