By Phoenix superstar Kevin Durant suffered a left ankle sprain and Jalen Green scored 33 points to lead the visiting Houston Rockets to a 148-109 win over the Suns on Sunday night.
Durant scored 11 points before his night ended when he rolled his ankle on Jabari Smith Jr.’s foot while driving to the basket with 6:57 remaining in the third quarter.
Durant will have an MRI on Monday, Suns coach Mike Budenholzer told reporters after the game. Durant will not travel with the team on its three-game road trip, which starts Tuesday against the Milwaukee Bucks.
