The game will mark the Suns debut for Durant, who was traded from Brooklyn at the NBA Trade Deadline but was still sitting out with a knee injury.
He told reporters at Spectrum Center on Tuesday afternoon that he was ready to play again.
“I feel great,” Durant said. “I was having fun out there before I got injured. Looking forward to going out there and picking up where I left off.”
Myers Park won the game 76-44 and will play North Meck in the 4A regional final on Saturday.
In 3A, West Charlotte won on the road at Ben Smith H.S., and will face Central Cabarrus in the regional final.
