Durant day-to-day with sore calf for U.S. Olympic basketball

LAS VEGAS -- Kevin Durant is dealing with calf soreness that has kept him from being a full participant in USA Basketball's training camp for the Paris Olympics, though he has assured team officials that he does not expect the issue to be a major one.

"Day-to-day," U.S. coach Steve Kerr said. "We're just going to show an abundance of caution."

Durant is the second forward who hasn't been able to be a full participant in the U.S. camp that had its second day of on-floor workouts Sunday. Boston forward Jayson Tatum was excused from the first two days of camp workouts for personal reasons and is expected to be on the floor with his U.S. teammates for the first time on Monday.

"He's frustrated," fellow USA Basketball and Phoenix Suns teammate Devin Booker said about Durant. "He can't be out there with us."

1. Durant never should've left the Warriors. He'd have two of three more rings...

if he hadn't let Kyrie Irving talk him into going to the Brooklyn franchise. That came to naught and now 6 years later he'll never win another championship.

Phoenix is not close, plus it turns out ne's a brooder who hardly communicates with teammates and coaches.
