Durant (ankle, COVID-19 health and safety protocols) and the Nets won't play the Trail Blazers on Thursday after the NBA postponed the game due to Brooklyn not having the league-required eight available players for that contest.
Even after the NBA postponed its most recent two scheduled contests for Sunday and Tuesday, the Nets won't return enough players from injury or health and safety protocols five days after their last game. Brooklyn's next game is set for Christmas Day against the Lakers, but Durant isn't a safe bet to gain clearance for that contest.
