Kevin Durant returned from a 23-game absence with 17 points in 19 minutes as the Brooklyn Nets swept past the New Orleans Pelicans 139-111.

Durant scored five from five field goal attempts and added seven rebounds and five assists in his first game since February 13 after suffering a hamstring strain.

Russell Westbrook recorded his 20th triple-double of the season as the Washington Wizards returned to winning ways with a 131-116 victory over the Orlando Magic.

The Wizards has lost their last four, but Bradley Beal scored 26 on his return from injury, while Westbrook added 23 points, 15 assists and 14 rebounds.

The Phoenix Suns continued their purple patch with a 117-113 overtime win over the Utah Jazz.

Devin Booker top scored with 35 for Phoenix, while Donovan Mitchell scored 41 in vain for Utah as the Suns won their seventh in a row, while the Jazz are winless in two.
