Kevin Durant coronavirus update: How is Kevin Durant healing?

Durant's friend and ex-Golden State Warriors teammate Quinn Cook was the last one to provide an update on the Kevin Durant coronavirus situation. As per Cook, Durant is doing ‘good’ and is keeping an optimistic approach. Before testing positive for COVID-19, Durant was healing from his Achilles Heel injury he suffered during last season’s NBA finals.

The current NBA season was suspended on March 11 after Utah Jazz’s Rudy Gobert tested positive for the virus. Since then, 14 NBA members have been confirmed to have coronavirus. Though the NBA is eyeing a mid-June return, no official statement has been made regarding the resumption of the 2019-20 season .
