Written by I Dig SportsPhoenix Suns star Kevin Durant suffered a left calf strain and will be reevaluated in two weeks, sources told ESPN on Saturday.
Durant suffered the injury in Friday's 114-113 win over the Dallas Mavericks, a game he finished with 26 points in 37 minutes.
The future Hall of Famer has had a strong start to the season, averaging 27.6 points on 55.3% shooting from the field and 42.9% from 3. His 38.8 minutes per game this year are the most he's averaged since 2010-11.
