Kevin Durant out for Team USA’s opener vs. Serbia
Kevin Durant will not play in Team USA’s opening game against Serbia at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
NBA insider Brian Windhorst reported that Durant will miss the Group C matchup due to a strained calf.
Durant has not participated in any of Team USA’s five friendly games leading up to the Olympics.
Windhorst stated, “I think [Team USA] gonna be playing Serbia without Kevin Durant… Steve Kerr met with him today and they decided he needs more time with that strained calf… They could fly in a replacement [for KD], that’s not gonna happen.”
