Durant posted 11 points (4-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal across 21 minutes during Tuesday's 122-87 win over Brazil in the quarterfinals of the Paris Olympics.
Durant's 11 points officially put him atop Team USA's leaderboard for career points on the men's or women's side. The superstar missed significant time with Team USA due to a minor calf injury, and he has been coming off the bench for the entirety of the Olympics. While leading the bench unit, the 35-year-old averaged 16.0 points, 2.7 rebounds and 2.0 assists across 19.3 minutes per game in three group-stage appearances. Durant's success from the group stage and quarterfinals will likely continue, and Team USA is now one step closer to a gold medal.
