OAKLAND, Calif., Jan. 28 (UPI) -- Kevin Durant keyed a late rush Friday that powered the Oklahoma City Thunder to its fourth consecutive win, a 120-109 victory over Golden State.
The Thunder had only a three-point lead with 7:30 to go when Durant hit a jumper that ignited a 12-1 outburst. Durant had seven points during that stretch and finished with 37 points and 14 rebounds.
It was the 11th win in 12 games for Oklahoma City, which has lost a league-low three contests this season.
Russell Westbrook contributed 28 points for the Thunder, Serge Ibaka had 20 points and 13 rebounds and James Harden came off the bench to score 19 points.
Dorell Wright led Golden State with 23.
The teams combined to take 173 shots in the up-tempo contest and they made 83 of them. Oklahoma City was 32-of-37 from the foul line and had 21 more rebounds than did the Warriors.
