“I thought we slowed them down and we beat them with our minds instead of just outrunning them,” Durant said. “Our offense and our talent just take over and we just made shots.”

Durant is now averaging 28.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 6.2 assists per game while shooting 50.6 percent from the floor.

As for the Warriors, they've grabbed back-to-back wins after losing two straight home games to the Los Angeles Lakers and Portland Trail Blazers, so perhaps Durant and company are about to put together yet another impressive string of victories.

Golden State will play three of its next four games at Oracle Arena, where it has certainly had some surprising struggles this season.
