The Phoenix Suns star forward Kevin Durant believes that his team is going into the business end of the season in a good ‘rhythm’.
The Suns, who have won four of their last six matches, are currently placed on the seventh spot in the Western Conference table with 39 wins and 28 defeats. They are within touching distance of the sixth-placed Sacramento Kings who have won 38 matches and suffered 27 defeats in the process.
Durant, while talking to the media, stated that Suns players were aware that they had to be in good rhythm towards the end of the season and that’s exactly what they are doing.
“Just wanna play good ball going into the postseason,” said the 35-year-old. “We all wanna be in rhythm and the flow of the game and I think that’s what we’re doing now. Playing against great teams makes you better.”
Durant, who is often regarded as one of the greatest point-scorers in the history of the NBA, is having another fabulous season for the Suns where he is producing 28.3 points per game which is the fourth-best in the competition.
To go with that, the two-time NBA champion is also contributing 6.6 rebounds, 5.4 assists, 1.3 blocks and 0.9 steals per game.
