Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant will be out 7–10 days with a left hamstring strain, the team announced Wednesday. 

Durant sustained the injury in the second quarter of Tuesday night’s 125–101 victory over the Washington Wizards. After 10 days, Durant will be re-evaluated and his status will be updated. 

The forward is averaging 28.1 points, 3 assists and 7.3 rebounds per game for Oklahoma City so far this season. Durant played in only 27 games in 2014–15 due to foot injuries.
