Kevin Durant Unlikely for Game 5 Despite Progress on Ankle Injury

Kevin Durant is making progress with his sprained left ankle and bone bruise but is unlikely to play in Game 5 against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Rockets star did not practice Tuesday and was limited to running on an anti-gravity treadmill as the team traveled to California trailing 3-1 in the series. Coach Ime Udoka called it day to day, while Durant has already missed three games in the series after returning to score 23 points in Game 2 before injuring his ankle late in that game.
