The Latest: Kerr says no more details about Durant’s rehab
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — The Latest from Friday night’s Game 4 of the NBA Finals (all times local):
4:50 p.m.
Warriors coach Steve Kerr says he done providing details of Kevin Durant’s rehab.
The two-time reigning MVP is missing his ninth straight game since straining his right calf in Game 5 of the Western Conference semifinals against Houston.
Kerr said Friday before Game 4 that the Warriors are “hoping he can play Game 5 or 6. And everything in between I’ve decided I’m not sharing because it’s just gone haywire.”
The coach says “there’s so much going on … it doesn’t make sense to continue to talk about it. He’s either going to play or he’s not. So tonight he’s not playing.”

Kevon Looney got a second opinion and a second chance to play in these NBA Finals.
After Warriors coach Steve Kerr said Looney would miss the remainder of the series against Toronto with a displaced first costal cartilage fracture, the team now says he may be able to play in Game 4.
Kerr says Looney is “just tough and he wants to play.”
Looney got hurt in Game 2 when he was defending a drive by Toronto’s Kawhi Leonard.
Looney has been a major part of the Warriors’ big-man rotation. His addition is an obvious boost.
