Kevin Durant has said that the Oklahoma City Thunder made defense their priority against the Milwaukee Bucks.
The forward led the team's scoring, adding 33 points in the 101-85 win and ending their two-game losing streak.
The 25-year-old told reporters: "All we wanted to focus on was defense.
"We told the guys before the game, 'Don't worry about making shots or missing shots, just worry about locking in on defense', and I think they did a great job of that.
"It shows we can win different ways. We can play fast-paced, slow it down, win a sloppy game or a low-scoring game. Tonight, we didn't get down on ourselves and let it affect our defense. Everybody played hard."
Oklahoma City sit second in the Northwest Division, level on wins with the Portland Trail Blazers.
