Game Preview

The Phoenix Suns expect superstar Kevin Durant to make his team debut on Wednesday in a road contest against the Charlotte Hornets.

Durant, whom Phoenix acquired from the Brooklyn Nets at the trade deadline, has not played since spraining his MCL on Jan. 8. He traveled with the Suns on their current four-game road trip, and the team confirmed Tuesday that Durant intends to play against the Hornets.

“It’s been a long time. I was having fun out there before I got injured, so looking forward to going out there and picking up where I left off,” Durant told reporters Tuesday. “I know it ain’t gonna be that smooth. I know it’s gonna take me some time to get used to everything early on, but as far as just having fun and just getting lost in the game, I’m looking forward to doing that again.”
