Most players struggle to come back from a bad first half, but Kevin Durant isn't most players. KD is not nice and kept that mantra going with 23 of his season-high 48 points in the fourth quarter. Durant hit the eventual game-winner with four seconds left to bring back the Oklahoma City Thunder from 13 points down in a 115-111 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves. Durant had a little help with Kevin Love of the Timberwolves missing four consecutive free throws late in the game, but KD still finished with 7 rebounds and 7 assists to add to the good times for his team.

Durant did all of this in the Nike Zoom KD VI PE colorway matching the alternate away uniform for the Oklahoma City Thunder. Along with an ankle-cut design, the KD VI is loaded with performance tech like a Phylon midsole, Zoom unit in the forefoot, and a 180-degree Air unit in the heel. The shoe is Flywire-enabled for flexible support.
