All eyes were on Kevin Durant going into Game 3 and he responded by putting on a show, leading the Warriors to an emphatic victory over the Los Angeles Clippers.
Durant did a little bit of everything as the Dubs picked up a 132-105 win at Staples Center on Thursday night to take a 2-1 advantage in the best-of-seven series.
After early exits to the first two games of the series by way of ejection and fouling out, Durant wasted little time in getting to work in Game 3.
He scored the Warriors' first six points and went on to make his first six shots of the game.
Durant had 12 points in the opening quarter, 15 more in the second and 11 in the third before sitting out the fourth.
All told, Durant tallied 38 points on 14-for-23 shooting, adding seven assists and a block to his dominant effort.
Speaking after the game, Durant said: "Coach [Steve Kerr] made some subtle adjustments but outside of that I think everybody approached the game in the same [as Game 1 and 2]. Every day I wake up playing in this beautiful league, I'm pretty happy so it's just the cherry on top - winning."
Looking ahead to Game 4, Durant said: "We know [the Clippers] are going to come out with a lot of energy so we have to match it but I think our game plan is pretty solid right now. We've got to stick to it and execute. I think every player has to be focused on their job."
