Kevin Durant returns, scores 33 points off bench in Brooklyn Nets' win over Phoenix Suns

After missing the past three games because of a bruised thigh, Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant returned on Sunday and erupted for 33 points in 28 minutes in a 128-119 victory over the visiting Phoenix Suns.

"It's like riding a bike," Durant said. "You get your footing right and just get your rhythm going; and I think my teammates did a great job of looking for me all game, and I just wanted to resort back to that work I put in. The shots I work on at practice and shootaround, try to get to those as much as possible to gain my rhythm and then start to get a little more creative as the game progressed.
