Kevin Durant is available on Friday night to play against the Atlanta Hawks. The two-time NBA Finals MVP isn’t on the Phoenix Suns’ injury report for this game. Durant has been healthy this year, especially of late. He’s missed only seven games this season. It’s been critical for the Suns, who have seen Bradley Beal and Devin Booker miss many games in the first few weeks.

On a six-game East Coast road trip, the Suns have gone 2-2 and will be hoping to go above .500 for this trip with a win on Friday night. They could end this trip 4-2 with a relatively easy contest in Atlanta on Friday and Washington on Sunday.
