In his first game against the team with whom he’d spent the first nine years of his career, Durant didn’t hold anything back, achieving a season high in points while matching his career high with seven treys. Dating back to last season, Durant has now amassed 69 straight games of 20 or more points, the longest streak of any player since Michael Jordan achieved the feat in 1991. He’s off to an outstanding start to his tenure with the Warriors, averaging 30.6 points, 8.6 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 2.4 steals, 2.0 three-pointers and 1.4 blocks in 35.0 minutes per game while shooting 58.7 percent from the field through five games.
