Durant ended up finishing with 20 points on 70% shooting and 50% from three-point range. He continues to give the Phoenix Suns a level of efficiency that the team hasn’t had in a long time. Durant said after the game that he’s still just trying to find a rhythm with his new team.
"I feel good, still figuring out the offense and how my team needs me to be effective on both ends…It's about how we come together as a group, and I think this is a tight nit group, tight knit organization."
