Thunder small forward Kevin Durant (foot) and guard Russell Westbrook (hand) are both "healing at an accelerated rate" and could be back in the starting lineup as early as the end of next week, according to the Oklahoman.

Both players made some progress while working out this week and are scheduled to take part in non-contact practice Saturday and will be re-evaluated next week.

Hope it's true...

[SugarHill]

Hope it's true. Missed Westbrook.

[ArbitraryWater]

They should come back new years and start an epic run over the entire league

Hope it's true. Missed Westbrook and especially Durant.

Westbrook's injury isn't career altering. If Durant comes back too soon it could very well be career altering. Brook Lopez and Roddy Beubois are two that suffered that same injury as Durant. Durant better make sure he heals before he starts playing in the NBA again.

Could is a big word. They could also be out of for the rest of the season...

[Crimsonrain777]

When did Durant get injured anyway?

[livinglegend]

I expect huge fta for OKC.(never seen before in history type of fta) The refs will have to work hard to get them to the playoffs. Wouldn't be surprised if durref still leads the league in fta.

[Fudge]

Durant going for dat consecutive MVP.

[Asiantastic]

So... Lakers back to the bottom of the West?

[pastis]

FVCK the battle of the 8th will be so epic in the West.
