Kevin Durant Makes Blunt Statement After Nets-Suns Game.

On Wednesday evening, the Phoenix Suns shockingly lost to the Brooklyn Nets (at home) by a score of 127-117.

Kevin Durant finished the loss with 30 points, eight rebounds, two assists and three blocks while shooting 10/18 from the field and 3/6 from the three-point range in 33 mintues of playing time.

As long as he can stay healthy, Durant still remains among the elite players in the Western Conference.

He is averaging 27.4 points, 6.6 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.5 blocks per contest while shooting 55.1% from the field and 44.1% from the three-point range in 11 games.

The Suns dropped to 10-8 in their first 18 games, which has them as the ninth seed in the Western Conference.

They are 3-7 over their previous 10 games.

Following the Nets, the Suns will play their next game on Saturday when they visit the Golden State Warriors at the Chase Center in California.

The Brooklyn Nets beat the Phoenix Suns 127-117 Wednesday behind a promising game from Ben Simmons and a career game from Tyrese Martin.

Simmons, who has little to show for through his first three seasons in Brooklyn, had 14 points, nine rebounds and eight assists in the win.

His 14 points were the most he has had in an NBA game since November 2022 in his first season with the Nets.

Along with a good game from Simmons, Martin put up a career-high 30 points on 8-of-10 from deep.

Coming into the game, the third-year player had logged just 31 points across his entire career.
