Ex-Net Kevin Durant shines in debut win with Phoenix Suns

He fit right in with his new team.

New Phoenix Suns superstar Kevin Durant made his debut with his squad in a 105-91 win against the Charlotte Hornets. Durant looked like his usual self, knocking down pull-up jumpers with ease and using his wingspan to contribute on the defensive end.

Durant, who played on a minutes restriction, finished with 23 points in 27 minutes, connecting on 10-of-15 field goals. He also grabbed six rebounds and blocked two shots.

The 13-time All-Star gave Suns fans a look at how lethal the team’s offense could be with 19 games left in the regular season and the postseason approaching.
