Seattle rookies Kevin Durant and Jeff Green got their first taste of back-to-back games in the NBA, and their performances turned out to be one of the highlights of the Sonics' 97-87 loss to Indiana at Conseco Fieldhouse.

"I thought they were decent," Sonics coach P.J. Carlesimo said. "We stretched their minutes out intentionally, but at times they were very good."

Durant led all scorers with 21 points in 35 minutes, making 6 of 13 field-goal attempts, 3 of 5 three-pointers and all six free throws.

Green followed with 14 points, though he made just 5 of 14 shots from the field.
