Drops 23 on Sixers Durant finished with 23 points (9-14 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal in 34 minutes during Monday's 109-99 victory over Philadelphia.

Impact Coach Mike Budenholzer shook up the Suns' starting five, moving Bradley Beal and Jusuf Nurkic to the bench while promoting Ryan Dunn and Mason Plumlee. If the new rotation sticks, it could lead to higher usage for Durant and Devin Booker, who would be the clear top options on the first unit. Durant has scored at least 20 points in 11 straight games since returning from a sprained ankle, averaging 29.4 points, 6.4 boards, 5.1 assists, 2.0 threes, 1.1 blocks and 1.0 steals over that stretch while shooting 50.4 percent from the floor.

Impact After a strong December in which he averaged 28.8 points, 6.1 rebounds and 4.6 assists, Durant kicked off his January with a similarly balanced stat line. Despite the Suns' woes, the star wing has remained as reliable a fantasy producer as ever, so long as he's been healthy. He'll look to stay hot Monday against the 76ers.

Impact Durant finished Saturday's contest as the Suns' leading scorer and finished second in that category behind Warriors' Jonathan Kuminga (34). Durant struggled from beyond the arc, but he made up for it at the charity stripe as he connected on 10 free-throw attempts for the fourth time this season. Since returning from a three-game absence due to a left ankle sprain, Durant has averaged 30.8 points, 5.9 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.0 blocks over 36.3 minutes per game.

Game-high 35 not enough Friday Durant supplied 35 points (11-19 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 10-12 FT) and three rebounds in 38 minutes during Friday's 98-89 loss to the Mavericks.

Impact Despite the impressive performance, Durant got almost no help with Devin Booker (groin) sidelined, as the rest of the Suns' starting five combined for only 22 points. Durant has scored at least 20 points in seven straight contests since returning from a three-game absence due to a sprained ankle, averaging 30.7 points, 5.9 boards, 5.0 assists, 2.1 threes and 1.3 steals over that stretch, and his usage should remain sky-high Saturday with Booker set to be in street clothes again.
