There is concern within the Suns organization that Durant has a Grade 2 sprain, which would keep him out between four and six weeks, according to The Arizona Republic.
If Durant is out for more than four weeks, he could potentially miss the start of the playoffs, which begin on April 15.
Durant — who was traded from the Nets to the Suns at the Feb. 9 trade deadline — left Footprint Center in a large walking boot.
