Durant's stint with Suns sets stage for NBA playoff showdown with Clippers

Kevin Durant's arrival with the Phoenix Suns hasn't been all smooth sailing. But, when Durant has played, he's been impressive, and the Suns are unbeaten with him in the lineup, fueling hopes of a first NBA championship for the franchise in its 55-year history. Durant's arrival adds to an already talented Suns roster, which includes Chris Paul, Devin Booker, and Deandre Ayton. The team will face off against the Los Angeles Clippers in the opening round of the playoffs, with the Clippers' roster boasting two-time Finals MVP Kawhi Leonard and nine-time All-Star Russell Westbrook. Although the Clippers are without All-Star Paul George due to a knee injury, Coach Ty Lue is confident in his team's ability to be "locked in" and rise to the challenge against the Suns.
