NBA World Reacts To Kevin Durant’s Dominant Game vs. Bucks
At one point in tonight’s Game-5 matchup, the Milwaukee Bucks led the Brooklyn Nets by 17 points. But now, the Nets have completely closed that gap –taking a late-game lead in the fourth quarter.
None of this could’ve happened without a herculean effort from superstar forward Kevin Durant. With Kyrie Irving out and James Harden severely limited, the brunt of the scoring load fell squarely on Durant’s shoulders.
And he delivered.
With five minutes still remaining in the game, Durant has a massive triple-double — 43 points, 15 rebounds and 10 assists.
The NBA world took to Twitter to react to his insane performance so far.

Kevin Durant is the 4th player in NBA postseason history with a 40-point, 15-rebound, 10-assist game.
The rest: Luka Doncic (2020), Charles Barkley (1993) and Oscar Robertson (1963). (h/t @ESPNStatsInfo) https://t.co/kXJNwdmj0r

Just remember Kevin Durant ain’t come out here chucking up shots & playing hero ball like many of y’all recommended he do. Everything he’s doing is within the flow of the game. 🔥📝

We are watching a MASTER at work! My God Kevin Durant. God Bless America.

Durant has yet to take a single break tonight, playing every minute of the game so far.
Will KD’s effort be enough to will his team to a Game-5 victory?
