CLEVELAND — Kevin Durant came to the Warriors for moments like these. He chose to join Golden State for the opportunities to play the most competitive basketball of his career on the biggest stage in the NBA.

Durant’s late three-pointer did more than lift the Warriors over the Cavaliers in a 118-113 Game 3 victory.

It was the biggest shot of his career, one made in a moment that solidified him as one of the game’s greatest closers.

On this segment of Bay Area Sports Insiders, Courtney Cronin is joined by FastBreak author Adam Lauridsen to break down how the Warriors came back from being down six with three minutes left, Durant’s 7-0 run in 63 seconds, why Kyrie Irving and LeBron James’ performances weren’t enough to earn Cleveland a win and the magnitude of what a 16-0 finish would mean.
