Kevin Durant scores season-high 51, Warriors still fall to Raptors
Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant scored a season-high 51 points (18-of-31 field goals, 4-of-7 3-pointers, 11-of-12 free throws) with 11 rebounds, 6 assists, and 1 turnover in a 131-128 overtime loss to the Toronto Raptors on Thursday.
This was Durant's first 50-point game of the season and sixth of his career. He's also scored at least 40 in three straight for the first time in his career. Durant is averaging 40.6 points, 10.6 rebounds, and 6.1 assists over the past five games, but his usage will likely take a hit once Stephen Curry (groin) returns to the lineup on Saturday versus the Detroit Pistons.
KD scored 77.7 FanDuel points on Thursday. He's averaging 66.5 FanDuel points over the past five games.
