Kevin Durant will be a game-time decision for the Oklahoma City Thunder against the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday night after being kept out of the last two games by a sprained toe.

Durant was a partial participant in shootaround Saturday, and the Thunder face a stiff test with the Southwest-leading Grizzlies. Oklahoma City fell to the punchline New York Knicks on Wednesday. Afterwards, center Kendrick Perkins said simply, "We gotta get our shit together."

Durant was named an All-Star reserve Thursday night despite missing 25 games so far this season. The Thunder are 7.1 points per 100 possessions better with Durant on the floor this season than without, according to Basketball Reference.
