NBA: Fourth-quarter rally sees the Phoenix Suns topple the Oklahoma City Thunder.

A rousing finish from the Phoenix Suns saw them register a 122-115 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder and spoil Kevin Durant’s record-breaking day.

The Thunder had held a 112-111 lead with just under two-and-a-half minutes remaining – with Durant passing 25 or more points for the 41st consecutive game to overhaul the previous record by Michael Jordan - however the Suns finished strongly to move into sole possession of the final play-off spot in the Western conference.
Goran Dragic scored 26 points, Gerald Green added 24 and PJ Tucker weighed in with a career-high 21 despite Durant finishing with 38 and Russell Westbrook adding 33 for the Thunder.
Injury to Tony Parker marred San Antonio’s 112-92 victory against the Memphis Grizzlies.
Spurs guard Parker was forced to leave the game during the first quarter with a back problem and in his absence Kawhi Leonard and Manu Ginobili scored 26 points apiece as the Spurs won their 60th game of the season.
