The play of Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook dominated social media on Wednesday night, and it also resulted in an impressive come-from-behind win by the Thunder over the Wizards in Washington.
The Wizards led by 12 at halftime, but it was all downhill from there for John Wall and Co. as Durant and Westbrook took over. The two combined for 66 points in helping OKC prevail 105-103 in overtime.
