OKLAHOMA CITY � Thunder star Kevin Durant has a sprained ankle and is listed as day to day.

The Oklahoma City forward hurt his right foot during Friday night's loss to Dallas. The team updated his condition Saturday following X-rays.

Durant stepped on the foot of Dallas' Josh Howard on a drive to the basket. Durant stayed in the game for three more minutes before leaving with a slight limp. He left the arena on crutches and wearing a protective boot.

Durant is Oklahoma City's leading scorer, averaging 26.3 points. The Thunder play at Memphis Saturday night before returning home to host the Mavericks on Monday.
