Kevin Durant came off the bench for the first time in his NBA career after missing the start of the Brooklyn Nets' clash against the Toronto Raptors due to health and safety protocols.
Durant was initially named to start on Friday, but was later removed from the lineup due to the protocols.
ESPN reported the 2014 NBA MVP was going through contact tracing, and Durant ended up entering the game late in the first quarter.
After 866 NBA starts, it marked the first time he had come off the bench.
The Nets trailed 34-23 after the first quarter against the Raptors.
