OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — From the NBA Finals to the All-Star Game to the Olympics, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook have proven themselves to be one of basketball’s most dynamic duos.

Oklahoma City leads the league in 3-point accuracy and free throw percentage and ranks second in overall field-goal shooting.
