My next chapter: Durant scores 33, Suns get swept
Kevin Durant finished with 33 points, nine rebounds, five assists, four blocks and two triples across 46 minutes in Sundayâs 122-116 loss to Minnesota.
Advice: Phoenixâs season came to a miserable end on Sunday night, but it wasnât for lack of trying on Durantâs part. He did it all in this one, scoring at will, pulling down rebounds, facilitating teammates and swatting shots on defense. Unfortunately, Minnesotaâs team was much better as a whole, getting needed contributions from multiple players. The Suns got strong efforts from Durant and Devin Booker (combined 82 points, 14 rebounds, 11 assists), but the rest of the starting five and the notoriously short bench came up short. This is surely not the result that Durant and the rest of the Sunsâ Big 3 expected.
