Stat line: 46 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists on 45.2 % shooting

There seems to be no answer for Kevin Durant in the league as he continues to dismantle the opposition teams with his red-hot performances. Durant has been playing at a whole other level this playoffs and is easily the best player in the world right now.

After averaging 35.0 points, 5.3 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game in the first round of the playoffs against the Los Angeles Clippers, Durant is continuing his form in the conference semifinals as he scored 46 points (series-high) in Game 3 against the Rockets.

His 46 points include 34 points only in the second half and with Curry and Thompson not quite feeling it on the offensive end, it was him who kept the Warriors in the game. Durant is averaging 36.7 points, 4.3 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game on 43.4 % shooting this series.
