The Golden State Warriors haven’t been at their best during the 2023-24 NBA season.
Despite Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green present on the team, the Warriors are lacking an X-Factor to truly make them a contender in the loaded Western Conference this season.
Considering the Dubs’ poor form over the past few weeks, not many expect them to win their upcoming matchup against the Phoenix Suns.
However, before the important game, the Warriors were given a huge relief as Kevin Durant has been listed out from the game due to an ankle sprain, as revealed via NBA insider Shams Charania on his Twitter handle.
Suns' Kevin Durant (ankle) is out tonight vs. Warriors.

Prior to Durant’s injury update, fans were gearing up to finally see the Big 3 of the Phoenix Suns in action.
After all, Bradley Beal will finally be back on the roster after missing a month due to a back injury.
But as it turns out, with Beal back on the roster, the Suns will have to play without Durant against the Warriors.
While it is sad news for the Suns fanbase, it was a much-needed break for the Golden State Warriors.
The Dubs are currently the 11th seed in the Western Conference with a terrible 10-12 record.
Considering the Suns will not be at their full strength, the Warriors will hope to win the game.
Can the Golden State Warriors register a crucial win against the Phoenix Suns in tonight’s away game? Well, fans will find out the result in a matter of a few hours.
