Kevin Durant: (Foot) Out Saturday

Durant (foot) will not play in Saturday's game against the Hornets, The Oklahoman's Anthony Slater reports.

Analysis:

Durant missed Friday's practice, after exiting Thursday's game against Dallas late in the fourth quarter while favoring his surgically-repaired right foot. He's dealt with soreness in the foot throughout the season, and it's unrelated to the sprained left big toe he suffered in late January. A bunch of players are likely to benefit from added minutes and shot attempts in Durant's absence, but recent acquisition Kyle Singler will get the start, according to The Oklahoman's Darnell Mayberry. Durant, meanwhile, can be considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Nuggets.
