Newly acquired Suns forward Kevin Durant is expected to make his Phoenix debut on March 1 against the Hornets in Charlotte, sources told The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
Durant was traded from the Nets on Feb. 9 just ahead of the NBA trade deadline. However, Durant hasn’t played since Jan. 8 when he suffered an MCL sprain during a game against the Heat.
The two-time NBA champion missed participating in the All-Star Game despite reports saying he could potentially return in time for the Feb. 19 game.
