Without Kyrie Irving, Ben Simmons, Seth Curry or a permanent head coach, the Brooklyn Nets had no issues on the floor Friday night in Washington D.C., where Kevin Durant put on a show in his hometown.
Durant scored 28 points and the Nets held the Wizards to just 29 points in the second half in a 128-86 blowout that included one of Durant’s best-ever highlights.
Late in the first quarter, Durant drove to the bucket and crossed over Washington’s Daniel Gafford, leaving his defender doing a split as he fell to the ground.
