Durant’s Big Night Not Enough to Put Away Clippers

Kevin Durant had a playoff career-high 45 points but it wasn’t enough to stop the Clippers in a 129-121 loss on Wednesday night. The defeat leaves the series at 3-2 in favor of the Dubs, with Game 6 coming up on Friday in Los Angeles.

The Warriors played from behind for all but a few moments in the second half. They trailed by as many as 15 in the third quarter before Durant fueled a late comeback that resulted in the Dubs taking a one-point advantage with 2:40 left in the fourth quarter.

That lead however was short-lived, as Lou Williams answered with a four-point play to give the Clippers the lead right back.
