What happened Hey it’s Raj from 3CB Brooklyn Nets Kevin Durant injured his left knee  last night when teammate Bruce Brown fell into it,   with the knee getting pushed inwards  (valgus) and into slight hyperextension. KD was unable to continue and today was diagnosed   The injury and timeline with a medial collateral ligament (MCL)  injury that will keep him out for 4-6 weeks. Based on that timeline, this is very  likely a grade 2 MCL tear - similar to   Lakers’ big Anthony Davis - and on average NBA  players miss about 41 days with this injury.
