Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant is expected to return from injury tonight against the Minnesota Timberwolves, according to Shams Charania. Durant missed 10 games due to a sprained ankle for Phoenix. He returns at an ideal time as the Suns prepare for a playoff run.

Phoenix knew that KD would return soon. However, his return date was not official until now. Barring any setbacks, Kevin Durant will play tonight against the Timberwolves.
The Suns are trying to get fully healthy for the playoffs. DeAndre Ayton has also been dealing with injury problems of late. Chris Paul and Devin Booker have also endured their share of health problems this year. If the Suns’ core of stars can stay healthy during the NBA playoffs, Phoenix will have a legitimate chance to reach the NBA Finals.
The Denver Nuggets will certainly be a tough team to beat. The Memphis Grizzlies and Sacramento Kings could also give the Suns trouble. But when the Suns made the trade for Kevin Durant, they immediately became a legitimate threat in the Western Conference. Booker and Durant have the potential to be the best pair in the NBA.
