When Kevin Durant left Game 5 with a non-contact injury, many thought his season was completely done with.
It turned out better for the Warriors when it was revealed it was a strained right calf. He was said to be out for Game 6 and possibly Game 7 against the Houston Rockets.
The Warriorsa didn’t need him to handle business in Houston.
They’ll have to do the same in the Western Conference Finals as KD is expected to miss not only Game 1, but possibly Game 2.
Now, the Warriors will have to figure out how to win with guys like Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green. Oh, the horror.
