Will Kevin Durant play tonight against the Golden State Warriors? Latest update on the Phoenix Suns star's injury report (January 31. 2025)

The Phoenix Suns received a major boost ahead of their January 31 matchup against the Golden State Warriors, as Kevin Durant remains fully available with no injury concerns. The game, scheduled for 10:00 PM ET at Chase Center in San Francisco, features two teams battling for positioning in the competitive Western Conference. With the Suns sitting at 24-22 and the Warriors just behind at 24-23, every game matters as the playoff race intensifies.
Kevin Durant has been a key player for the Phoenix Suns this season, and his recent form has been exceptional. Over the last 20 games, he has averaged 28 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 4.5 assists, playing a critical role in keeping Phoenix competitive. The Suns, who rank 14th in the NBA in scoring with 112.7 points per game, will need Kevin Durant to continue his strong play, especially against a Warriors team known for its three-point shooting.
Alongside Devin Booker (19.8 PPG) and Bradley Beal (13.8 PPG), Kevin Durant gives Phoenix a formidable offensive trio. The Phoenix Suns’ ability to space the floor and capitalize on open looks has been crucial, as they rank ninth in the NBA with 14 made three-pointers per game. Their efficiency from beyond the arc (37.7%) will be a key factor in their matchup against Golden State.

Unlike the Phoenix Suns, the Warriors will be dealing with multiple injuries. Jonathan Kuminga has been ruled out due to an ankle injury, while Draymond Green remains sidelined with a calf issue. Their absences leave a significant gap in Golden State’s defense and rebounding, which could give Phoenix an advantage.
Golden State, however, still has Stephen Curry, who leads the team with 22.3 points per game and is one of the NBA’s most dangerous shooters. The Warriors rank fourth in the league in three-pointers made per game (15.4), largely thanks to Curry’s league-best 4.3 makes from beyond the arc. Andrew Wiggins (15.7 PPG) and Trayce Jackson-Davis (8.4 PPG, 7.7 RPG) will also play key roles in trying to fill the void left by Green and Kuminga.
With both teams looking to climb in the standings, this matchup holds significant importance. The Phoenix Suns are aiming to capitalize on their health advantage, while the Warriors will rely on their home-court edge and outside shooting.
