Kevin Durant scores 49 points in Golden State Warriors' win over Orlando Magic
Tuesday 27 November 2018 09:15, UK
Kevin Durant went past 40 points for a second straight game as he led the Golden State Warriors to a 116-110 victory over the Orlando Magic.
Durant scored eight of his 49 points in the final 79 seconds as the Warriors pulled out a victory that looked unlikely for much of Monday's contest at Oracle Arena.
The two-time Finals MVP connected on 16 of his 33 shots, four of his 10 three-point attempts and all 13 of his free throws en route to the fifth-highest scoring game of his career.
The 49 points were his highest since he poured in 51 for Oklahoma City at Toronto in March 2014.
Durant scored 44 points in Saturday's win over the Sacramento Kings.
