Kevin Durant‘s injury has become a focal point within the Houston Rockets organization. Amen Thompson‘s recent comments on Durant’s situation have sparked further questions as the team prepares for Game 4 against the Los Angeles Lakers.

During a media session, Thompson was questioned about Durant’s recovery and provided a puzzling response reported by NBA insider Dave McMenamin: “Amen Thompson was asked how KD was feeling and he said, ‘To be honest with you, I don’t know.’

Despite Durant’s status being listed in the latest injury report, fans remain eager for more clarity regarding this situation within the roster. The Rockets are in a must-win situation, and Durant’s absence is undoubtedly felt as they battle the Lakers.
