Yahoo Sports: Scores, News, and Analysis

The focus of tonight was on Paul George's comeback to the court. Despite looking a bit rusty after his time off with 15 points on 4-of-14 shooting, five rebounds, and four assists, his return helped create space for Tyrese Maxey, who scored an impressive 32 points.

In the end, the night ended up being about Kevin Durant, who scored 15 of his 35 in the fourth quarter, including hitting this game-winner.

The win improves the Suns to 6-1 on the young season, while the 76ers fall to 1-5.

The bright spot for the 76ers was the play of Guerschon Yabusele, who scored 19 off the bench and hit five 3-pointers. He's been asked to play more at the five with Embiid out than should be his role, but there are nights he is up to the task and this was one of them.
