Brooklyn Nets Win In Miami But Lose To Kevin Durant Due To An Injury

– Irving leads a win by the minimum (101-102) to add 18 victories in 20 games

The Brooklyn Nets win once again, but this time they do so with a load of endless worry about their back or Kevin Durant’s right knee, which was injured near the end of the third quarter.

Victory for the Nets in Miami by the minimum, 101-102, to add 18 wins in their last 20 games, a happy scenario for the fittest team in the league that has been completely darkened by the injury of its great star in a rough game that also included the physical limitation of Bam Adebayo in the second half due to a bruise on his right hand and the slip of Tyler Herro in the last and crucial play of the game that could only be a scare, but which in the worst case it could end in a knee injury.

At this time everything goes through Durant’s right knee. The injury came with 1:05 remaining to conclude the third quarter. Jimmy Butler penetrated to the basket and met with the opposition under the rim of Ben Simmons, then the Heat player fell from the jump without having Durant’s rear reference and he fell to meet his rival’s right knee.

That wasn’t when Durant left the game, even though he sat on the ground clutching his affected knee. The forward tried to continue but his team called a timeout with 36.6 seconds left in the quarter. So Durant could leave the court. The good news is that he could put weight on his leg, but we will have to wait for the MRI that will be performed on Monday.

The game, already without Durant in it, was decided in the last seconds. The ultimately winning basket came from Royce O’Neale, who made it 101-102 with 3.2 seconds left after grabbing an offensive rebound after Kyrie Irving’s triple miss.
