San Antonio Spurs - Houston Rockets

It's difficult to believe that the Lakers will once again leave Durant out of the game as they did in the second half last night, because I think there will be conclusions drawn from both Durant and the coaches on how to better create opportunities for him and possibly play without the ball. It helps that Sengun will most likely play, taking some pressure off Durant. Overall, I don't think his total of 24.5 points is high, as he has been averaging over 25 points per game this season. It's just a matter of time before he consistently reaches this number and goes over. I think Durant will take yesterday's game personally and will have a bounce back, as it would be a shame to have to put another star on the bench once again.
