Devin Booker and Kevin Durant combined for 86 of 121 points in Game 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Nuggets. Phoenix defeated Denver 121-114 and is now trailing 2-1 in the series.
Speaking about the main problem of his team, Nikola Jokic singled out Booker and Durant. The Serbian stars described the duo as the best scorers in the NBA at the moment.
“We know what the problem is,” Jokic said. We know who we have to stop but they are talented players. It’s the problem. I would say that they are the two best scorers maybe in the league right now who can make their shot and who teams can serve another body to and they can still go forward and make difficult shots.”
