Nets' Kevin Durant: Out vs. Magic

Durant (hamstring) is out for Thursday's game against the Magic, Billy Reinhardt of NetsDaily.com reports.

Durant will miss a sixth straight game with a strained left hamstring. After Thursday's game, he'll have just three more chances to take the court before the All-Star break. For what it's worth, Nets head coach Steve Nash said he expects Durant to return before the end of the first half, according to Brian Lewis of the New York Post.
