The Warriors’ Kevin Durant will miss Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday.

OAKLAND, Calif. — Kevin Durant still isn’t ready to return for the Golden State Warriors as he works back from a strained right calf suffered during the Western Conference semifinals.

Durant didn’t practice with the Warriors on Tuesday leading into Game 3 of the NBA Finals, and he has yet to get on the court for a structured session with the two-time defending champions since getting injured May 8.

Guard Klay Thompson practiced two days after sustaining a mild strain to his left hamstring that forced him out of Game 2. He is listed as questionable for Game 3 on Wednesday night. The best-of-seven series with the Toronto Raptors is tied at 1-1.

In addition, backup big man Kevon Looney suffered a non-displaced cartilage fracture on the right side of his collarbone area and will miss the remainder of the finals.
