The Phoenix Suns defeated the Denver Nuggets 117-107 after a great game which was decided by Kevin Durant in overtime.
KD put up 35 points, eight of which came in the extra period and was the key factor in Phoenix’s win in Denver without Devin Booker.
Here’s how NBA Twitter reacted to the Suns’ overtime win.
Kevin Durant still the deadliest player in the game on any given night and the Suns have weapons around him. You have to take this offense seriously when it’s firing. pic.twitter.com/JcT8dc9NeQ

The Suns are a great basketball team before and after the 4th quarter

Kevin Durant was 1-of-8 in the 4th quarter and had missed 5 straight 3PTS
Then he knocks down a 3PT to force OT

That was an awesome basketball game. Brad Beal and KD were insane.
But Phoenix’s defense was amazing in OT. Need to watch that again.

Gotta respect greatness

What a gut check win by the Suns. They could not have played worse in the fourth quarter. KD with the CLUTCH three pointer with 26 seconds left to force OT and then 8 big points in OT. But the MVP of this game was Eubanks – 10 points, 8 rebounds kept many plays alive for Phx.
