(NEW YORK) — Kevin Durant won’t be on the court Monday night when the Brooklyn Nets take on the Sacramento Kings.

The Nets announced on Twitter Sunday that the 32-year-old power forward “has been diagnosed with a mild left hamstring strain following an evaluation today.”

As a result of his injury, Durant will miss Monday night’s game as well as Tuesday’s matchup against the Phoenix Suns so he can receive treatment.
