2026 NBA Playoffs: Kevin Durant Questionable for Rockets vs. Lakers Game 3 with Ankle Sprain
The Houston Rockets face a dire situation, down 0-2 against the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2026 NBA Playoffs, with superstar Kevin Durant listed as questionable for Game 3 due to a left ankle sprain. Durant, who missed Game 1 with a knee contusion, led the Rockets with 23 points in Game 2 but struggled in the second half under intense defensive pressure. His availability and performance are crucial for Houston to avoid a 0-3 deficit against a Lakers team still without Luka Doncic but possibly seeing Austin Reaves return.
