The MVP of the last two NBA championship series, Golden State Warriors star Kevin Durant, finally made his big comeback on Monday night from a strained calf — and quickly suffered what appears to be a season-ending Achilles injury. After the game, the president of the team spoke to the press and offered an emotional explanation about the decision to allow Durant to come back.
The Warriors found themselves in an unusual position going into game five Monday night: trailing their opponent, the Toronto Raptors, 3-1. Durant had been held out of the first four games and his absence was clearly having a huge impact on the series, which the Warriors had been prohibitive favorites to win going in. To Warriors fans’ great relief, Durant was finally given the green light to enter the series Monday night.
