Kevin Durant’s injury status for Suns vs Pelicans

On December 14, 2024By Littum

No team in the Western Conference is more desperate for a win than the New Orleans Pelicans. What started as a promising season after newly acquired star Dejounte Murray quickly turned into an injury-riddled nightmare.

New Orleans is currently on a nine-game losing streak and has the worst record in the Western Conference at 4-18. While the team may get some reinforcements in the form of Brandon Ingram, they will also have some luck on their side tonight.

The Phoenix Suns have officially listed superstar forward Kevin Durant as out against the New Orleans Pelicans with a left ankle sprain. The Suns have not been a good team this season with Durant out with an injury. In seven games without Durant this season, the Phoenix Suns have a 1-6 record.

If the Pelicans somehow have both Brandon Ingram and Herb Jones in uniform tonight, they have a legitimate chance to end their losing streak against the Phoenix Suns. For all the bad luck the Pelicans have endured this season, tonight should be a moment where they could finally get lucky for once. If they don’t win tonight, they will have an even tougher Oklahoma City Thunder team waiting for them on Saturday.

The New Orleans Pelicans face off against the Phoenix Suns at 8pm EST tonight.
