Kevin Durant scored a season-high 40 points (14-28 FG, 2-10 3PT, 10-10 FT) and added eight rebounds, three assists, and two steals in Houston's 113-108 win over Orlando on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact:
Durant, who scored 26 of his 40 points in the second half, became the first player in NBA history to record 40 points in a regular season game with five different franchises. He also became the sixth player in NBA history to surpass 32,000 points and he now needs 287 points to pass Michael Jordan for fifth on the all-time scoring list. The 37-year-old is averaging 26.1 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 4.5 assists this season and is showing no signs of slowing down.
