Watch Kevin Durant hit the game-winner and finish his 15 on fourth down to lift Suns past 76ers

NBA: Philadelphia 76ers at Phoenix Suns

NBA: Philadelphia 76ers at Phoenix Suns

This evening would be about Paul George’s return to court. He seemed the expected amount of rust after his dismissal — 15 points on 4-of-14 shooting, five rebounds and four assists — but his presence opened the floor for Tyrese Maxey, who scored 32.

Ultimately, the night was about Kevin Durant, who scored 15 of his 35 in the fourth quarter, including hitting this game-winner.

The win improves the Suns to 6-1 on the young season, while the 76ers fall to 1-5.

The bright spot for the 76ers was the play of Guerschon Yabusele, who scored 19 off the bench and hit five 3-pointers. He has been asked to play more at the five with Embiid out than his role should be, but there are nights when he is up to the task and this was one of them.
