Wednesday's A.M. Hot Clicks
Kevin Durant is on a roll. The Thunder forward scored 46 points last night in a 105-97 victory over Portland and has averaged 36 points, seven rebounds and five assists in the 14 games since teammate Russell Westbrook went down with an injury. Even his competitors are gushing about him, while LeBron James is getting KD's stats delivered to his phone every night. I'm shocked that Durant didn't win by a landslide in this NBA.com poll about a hypothetical Carmelo Anthony vs. KD game of 1-on-1. All he needs is a celebrity girlfriend now that he's single. My choice is Rihanna, who seems to have gotten over her crush on Eagles linebacker Michael Kendrick.
