The Warriors said Durant will be re-evaluated after the
four-week period and it is possible he could return before the
end of the regular season, which ends in six weeks on April 12.
"At this time it's just speculation to guess when that is,"
general manager Bob Myers told reporters in a conference call
later Wednesday. "He'll heal as his body heals."

The Warriors signed veteran Spanish guard Jose Calderon to a
contract.
Terms of the deal were not announced by the team for the
35-year-old Calderon, who was waived by the Los Angeles Lakers
on Monday.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid will miss the remainder of
the season to recover from his left knee injury, the team
announced.
Embiid underwent an MRI exam on his knee Monday afternoon and
the results revealed the meniscus tear "appears more
pronounced."
Embiid's status was changed by the 76ers from out indefinitely,
while dealing with swelling and soreness in his left knee, to
out for the remainder of this season two days later. (Editing by
