Durant scores 50 in series-clinching win vs. Clips

LOS ANGELES -- Golden State Warriors superstar Kevin Durant scored 50 points in a dominating 129-110 Game 6 series-clinching win over the LA Clippers on Friday night.

Durant's performance puts him in rarefied air within NBA history. With his 38 first-half points, Durant tied Phoenix Suns forward Charles Barkley for second-most points in a half. Barkley scored 38 in the first half of a 1994 playoff game. The pair trails only former Warriors guard Sleepy Floyd, who scored 39 points in the second half of a 1987 playoff game against the Suns.
