Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry scored 28 points apiece to lead the Golden State Warriors to a comfortable 118-103 win over the Memphis Grizzlies.
The Warriors' dynamic scoring duo powered the defending NBA champions to their seventh win in the last 10 games and gave them sole position of top spot in the West, half a game ahead of the Denver Nuggets.
Curry shot an inefficient 7-for-20 but made six of his 12 three-pointers and 8-of-9 free throws. He complemented his 28 points with 10 rebounds and seven assists for the Warriors, who won for the fifth time in their last six road games and 25th time in 37 road games this season.
Durant missed just one shot all night, making 12-of-13 field goals, 3-of-3 free throws and draining his only three-point attempt in his 28-point haul.
He made crucial baskets late in the game, scoring seven straight points (two free throws, a three-pointer and a two-point jumper) to increase Golden State's lead from one point to eighth with seven minutes to play.
