LOS ANGELES – Phoenix Suns head coach Mike Budenholzer must have heard Kevin Durant’s leadership being questioned over the years. ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith just criticized him Thursday for not being a better leader who can have an impact on teammates because of the respect he’s earned as an all-time great player.

With Suns star Kevin Durant at the free throw line and 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter, Clippers fans in "The Wall", swaying from side to side as if they were at a concert and upping the volume, seemed to effect Durant, who shoots nearly 90 percent from the charity stripe for his career, to the point where he missed both shots.
