Durant to remain on minutes restriction vs. 76ers

Kevin Durant is back. That much we should be happy about. But when it comes to facing the league-worst Philadelphia 76ers Friday night, the Oklahoma City Thunder will keep Durant on a minute restriction of 30. 

Not that KD should have to play 48 against a 1-17 squad in any case. Having said that, Durant told media Friday that technically, the 5-13 Thunder aren't much better record-wise. 

"Feels like we're 1-17 too," Durant said in response to whether OKC is looking past the lowly Sixers.
