La estrella de los Brooklyn Nets, James Harden, será reevaluado en aproximadamente 10 días después de que una resonancia magnética revelara una distensión en el tendón de la corva derecha, anunció el equipo el martes.

Harden originalmente sufrió la lesión el 31 de marzo contra los Houston Rockets, pero pareció agravarse el tendón de la corva en su regreso contra los New York Knicks el lunes.

Duró apenas cuatro minutos antes de tener que salir del concurso.

Mientras tanto, se espera que Kevin Durant regrese el miércoles contra los New Orleans Pelicans. Aparece como probable en el informe oficial de lesiones del equipo.

Durant no juega desde el 13 de febrero.

Los Nets solo han tenido a su trío estelar de Harden, Durant y Kyrie Irving en la misma alineación durante siete juegos (5-2) esta temporada, pero actualmente son No. 1 en la Conferencia Este con 35-16.

Brooklyn Nets star James Harden will be reevaluated in approximately 10 days after an MRI revealed a strained right hamstring, the team announced on Tuesday.

Harden originally sustained the injury on March 31 against the Houston Rockets but appeared to reaggravate the hamstring in his return against the New York Knicks on Monday.

He lasted just four minutes before having to exit the contest.

Meanwhile, Kevin Durant is expected to return on Wednesday against the New Orleans Pelicans. He’s listed as probable on the team’s official injury report.

Durant has not played since Feb. 13.

The Nets have only had their star trio of Harden, Durant and Kyrie Irving in the same lineup for seven games (5-2) this season, but are currently No. 1 in the Eastern Conference at 35-16.
