Kevin Durant has been reportedly ruled out for Thursday's Game 2 against the Portland Trail Blazers due to a calf strain, sources told Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports.
The Golden State Warriors forward initially suffered the injury in Game 5 of the team's second-round series against the Houston Rockets and hasn't played since.

Durant will be re-evaluated Thursday, though there's no timeline for his return. A clean bill of health could potentially see him return to the series as early as Game 3 on Saturday in Portland.
The 30-year-old star leads all players this postseason in scoring at 34.2 points per game. He's also averaging 5.2 rebounds and 4.9 assists while shooting 41.6 percent from 3-point range.
