YEAR 20 AND KD IS STILL COOKING! 30 POINTS to kick things off, while Jabari Smith Jr. matches him with 30?! The Rockets are looking DANGEROUS already!

Jabari matching KD with 30 is the part Houston fans should be excited about. That's a lot for a defense to cover.

Year 20 and Kevin Durant is still doing Kevin Durant things. 30 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists as Houston beats Dallas 128–110 β€” but the bigger story is how quickly the Rockets took complete control of this game. The 3PS momentum chart shows 7 lead changes and 5 ties early before Houston ripped off a 14–0 run, blew the lead open to 37 points, and never gave Dallas a real way back. KD’s profile still looks absurd for this stage of his career: 98th percentile in scoring, 89th in true shooting, 91st in 3PM and 97th in PIR among forwards last season. His shot distribution is still basically impossible to scheme for too β€” volume at the rim, midrange, and beyond the arc without being dependent on any one zone. And Houston had help everywhere: Jabari Smith Jr. also scored 30, Sengun went 23/10/5, and Amen Thompson added 16/10/4. KD starts Year 20 with 30. Houston starts 1–0. Still elite. Still ridiculously hard to guard. @HoustonRockets @NBA #Rockets #KevinDurant #NBA #3PS

Jabari matching KD’s scoring gave Houston a huge lift. Four made threes supplied 12 of Smith’s 30 points against Dallas on October 21 β€” 40% of his scoring in that opening win. That stretch shooting matters around this frontcourt. #JabariSmithJr #Rockets #NBA #Basketball phantomstat.com/seo/nba/play…
