Kevin Durant: Will miss at least two more games

Durant (hamstring) said that he's showing improvement, but will miss at least two more games, ESPN.com's Royce Young reports.

Analysis:

Durant, who first suffered the injury last Tuesday in a game against the Wizards, is scheduled to be evaluated within a few days, at which point the Thunder may have a better idea of when he'll be able to make his return to the lineup. For now, he's been limited to doing weight training and doing some light shooting during practices, but the Thunder are hopeful he can ramp up his activities by the end of the week. With Durant officially ruled out for games Monday against the Grizzlies and Wednesday against the Pelicans, the forward's next opportunity to play would arrive Saturday at home versus the Knicks. Anthony Morrow is expected to remain the starter at small forward until Durant returns.
