The footwork at his size & age in tandem with the handle, all the way through the finish to evade the contest

Appreciate what you're watching"

Durant is in his third season playing for Phoenix.

While he has been elite, the Suns are one of the most disappointing teams in the league.

They are currently the 11th seed in the Western Conference with a 29-33 record in 62 games.

Following the Nuggets, the Suns will play their next game on Sunday afternoon when they visit Klay Thompson and the Dallas Mavericks.

On the road, they have gone 11-20 in 31 games.
