Kevin Durant sinks former team


Houston Rockets forward Kevin Durant took extra pleasure in sinking his former team with a late go-ahead triple in Monday's 100-97 victory over the Phoenix Suns.

"I don't want to sound too dramatic, but I will. To be kicked out of a place, it felt like I've been scapegoated for the issues we had as a team last year," Durant told reporters postgame, including Lachard Binkley of Sports Illustrated. "Yeah, it felt good to beat them and hit a game-winning shot."
