Phoenix Suns Hopeful Superstar Forward Will Return By The End Of March

The Phoenix Suns have been very up-and-down in recent times, and while there's a few reasons for that, the biggest of all has to be the absence of their massive trade deadline acquisition Kevin Durant, who is dealing with an ankle injury.

That injury was meant to keep him out for the remainder of the regular season, but according to NBA Insider Shams Charania, he is on track to return by the end of March, which will be a massive boost to their playoff hopes.

In three games with the Suns, Durant was averaging 27 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists, and if he can indeed return with some regular season action to go, it makes this team even more dangerous, and one that will be incredibly tough to beat down the stretch.
