On October 12th, 2014, Oklahoma City Thunder GM Sam Presti released this statement informing the world of the fractured foot Kevin Durant suffered at practice the day before.
The fracture was determined to be a Jones fracture, and we could see Durant return to action in 6-8 weeks.
After practice yesterday, Kevin made us aware of discomfort in his right foot. We proceeded to perform the necessary imaging studies to determine the cause of his discomfort. At this stage, Kevin has been diagnosed with a Jones fracture. Traditional treatment of this injury requires a surgical procedure and recent NBA cases have resulted in a return to play in 6-8 weeks. We are in the process of collaboratively evaluating the most appropriate next steps with Kevin, his representatives, and Thunder medical personnel. Until a course of action is determined, we are unable to provide a timeline specific to Kevin's case.
