Durant guides Nets past Jazz at Barclays
Superstar flirts with triple-double in 114-106 victory
Kevin Durant began Monday by voicing fellow superstar Kyrie Irving’s displeasure over not being able to play games in Brooklyn yet due to New York City’s vaccination mandates and COVID-19 protocols.
He finished the day off by proving the Nets could hold the fort until their second superstar is permitted to rejoin his teammates at Barclays Center.
“He’s frustrated in not being able to play,” Durant said following Brooklyn’s shootaround at Sunset Park’s HSS Training Center. “He figured this stuff would be rolled back by now, we’d be way past this.”
