Oklahoma rack up 14th straight NBA win; Durant hits 31K career points
"NBA champions Oklahoma City Thunder powered to their 14th straight victory, beating the Dallas Mavericks 132-111 to push their record to an impressive 22 wins and one loss. NBA Most Valuable Player Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 33 points and Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren added 15 apiece in Friday's game for Oklahoma City, who are off to the best start to a season since the Golden State Warriors opened the 2015-16 campaign 24-0."
"The Boston Celtics, led by 30 points from Jaylen Brown, cruised past the short-handed Los Angeles Lakers 126-105. The marquee clash lost much of its lustre, with Lakers superstar LeBron James sidelined by the sciatica that caused him to miss the first 14 games of his 23rd season and by foot joint arthritis. Luka Doncic was also absent, missing a second game for personal reasons."
"Denver star Nikola Jokic scored 30 of his 40 points in the second half as the Nuggets rallied to edge the Hawks 134-133 in Atlanta. Hawks forward Jalen Johnson had a triple-double by halftime with 11 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists before the break and finished with 21 points, 18 rebounds and 16 assists. But the Nuggets, who trailed by as many as 23 late in the first half, put up 80 points in the second half"
