Found March 17, 2013 on Fox Sports Southwest:
PLAYERS: Kevin Durant,  Russell Westbrook,  Mike James,  Thabo Sefolosha,  O.J. Mayo,  Dirk Nowitzki

DALLAS (AP) -- Kevin Durant scored 19 of his 31 points in the fourth quarter, Russell Westbrook had 35 including the go-ahead jumper with 1 minute left, and the Oklahoma City Thunder beat the Dallas Mavericks 107-101 Sunday night. Durant was 3 of 9 from the floor before hitting seven shots in a row during one stretch in the fourth. Westbrook connected on a 17-footer to give the Thunder a 103-101 lead. With a chance to tie on the next possession, Durant forced Dallas into a shot-clock violation when he blocked Mike James' desperation jumper. Thabo Sefolosha hit a turnaround jumper over O.J. Mayo to stretch Oklahoma City's lead to 105-101. Dirk Nowitzki scored 23 points, including two free throws for the Mavericks to tie the score at 101 with 1:20 left. Dallas, however, didn't score after that.
