Listen to Colin Cowherd explain why Kevin Durant’s devastating Achilles injury during Game 5 of the 2019 NBA Finals is no one fault’s and is simply what happens when an incredibly talented athlete tries to lay everything on the line to win a championship on their sport’s biggest stage.
Most of the blame has gone to the Golden State Warriors and their handling of Durant after his initial injury on May 9th against the Houston Rockets, as many have questioned whether the team and medical staff alike were too aggressive in their will to get him ready for the NBA Finals, but Colin says a source close to the league told him this was 100% Durant’s decision and KD was going to put himself into the lineup one way or another.
Check out the audio above as Colin discusses one of the most emotional moments in NBA history.
