Durant (calf) is available for Team USA's opening match of the Paris Olympics versus Serbia on Sunday, Brian Windhorst of ESPN.com reports.
After missing significant preparation with Team USA due to a right calf strain, Durant will suit up for Sunday's matchup. The superstar missed several practices and was absent from all five of the squad's showcase games. However, Team USA will get their leading scorer back in time for the start of the Olympic group phase. The last time Durant suited up for Team USA was in 2021 in Tokyo, when he averaged 27.1 points, 7.0 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.5 blocks per game.
