Sacremento Mayor Kevin Johnson: We had a very productive meeting. I reached out. George [Maloof] and I had meeting in Las Vegas today that was productive. I thought, and we thought that it was very important to keep the lines of communication open. In the spirit of Sacramento, if anything productive is going to happen, you have to be able to communicate and we did that today and we agreed to have a follow up conversation early next week.”

Thunder coach Scott Brooks: We all know that Kevin [Durant] can score with the best of them in this league and he’s going to be able to do that for a long time. He has to continue to focus on making his teammates look better and get better and make them get easier shots and he did that tonight, he had seven assists.”
