N.B.A. Roundup: Brook Lopez’s 31 Points Help Nets End Thunder’s Winning Streak

Brook Lopez scored a season-high 31 points and collected 10 rebounds on Sunday night, and the Nets ended the Oklahoma City Thunder’s seven-game winning streak with a 116-106 home win.

Kevin Durant had 32 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists, but Oklahoma City never led in the game, which started four hours later than originally scheduled because of a blizzard that dumped more than two feet of snow on New York on Saturday.

Russell Westbrook finished with 27 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists as the Thunder lost for just the fifth time in 27 games.
