In the absence of the injured Stephen Curry, the other star of the team, forward Kevin Durant, contributed 21 points as leader of the attack of the Golden State Warriors, who won by 110-100 to the Orlando Magic and achieved the seventh consecutive win.
Durant, who captured seven rebounds, played an irregular game, as he set his best record of the season in assists by sharing eight, but did not convert any of the four triples he threw. Power forward Draymond Green also did a good offensive job to get 20 points -better mark so far this season-, which he completed with five touchdown passes, four rebounds and two recovered balls. Base Shaun Livingston, who started as a starter at Stephen Curry, contributed 16 points and six assists, which left him as the team's third highest scorer. For his part, the guard Klay Thompson scored 15 points and completed the list of four players of the Warriors who had double-digit numbers. The victory allowed the Warriors to settle for an 11-3 record and to share the Houston Rockets' first place in the Western Conference.
The Swiss Montenegrin center Nikola Vucevic scored 20 points, the French guard Evan Fournier added 16 and power forward Aaron Gordon added a double-double of 10 points and 10 rebounds with the Magic (8-6), who lost the fourth game of the last six who have played.
