Drains 31 points in loss Durant provided 31 points (10-24 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 10-12 FT), six rebounds, three assists and four blocks in 37 minutes during Saturday's 109-105 loss to Golden State.

Impact Durant finished Saturday's contest as the Suns' leading scorer and finished second in that category behind Warriors' Jonathan Kuminga (34). Durant struggled from beyond the arc, but he made up for it at the charity stripe as he connected on 10 free-throw attempts for the fourth time this season. Since returning from a three-game absence due to a left ankle sprain, Durant has averaged 30.8 points, 5.9 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.0 blocks over 36.3 minutes per game.

Game-high 35 not enough Friday Durant supplied 35 points (11-19 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 10-12 FT) and three rebounds in 38 minutes during Friday's 98-89 loss to the Mavericks.

Impact Despite the impressive performance, Durant got almost no help with Devin Booker (groin) sidelined, as the rest of the Suns' starting five combined for only 22 points. Durant has scored at least 20 points in seven straight contests since returning from a three-game absence due to a sprained ankle, averaging 30.7 points, 5.9 boards, 5.0 assists, 2.1 threes and 1.3 steals over that stretch, and his usage should remain sky-high Saturday with Booker set to be in street clothes again.

Scores 27 points in win vs. Denver Durant posted 27 points (9-26 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 9-9 FT), four rebounds, six assists, two blocks and two steals across 38 minutes during Wednesday's 110-100 victory over the Nuggets.

Impact Durant might have needed 26 shots to score 27 points, but he still led the Suns in scoring and filled the stat by recording two or more tallies in each of the five major categories. Durant has been excellent since returning from a three-game absence due to a sprained left ankle, and he's averaging 30.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 1.5 steals per game in his last six appearances.
