The Golden State forward was 10-of-15 shooting from the field and made six of his nine 3-point attempts. He tallied a team-high 31 points, seven rebounds, two assists and two blocks in the victory.

"This is definitely going to give me some bragging rights," Durant said, as he will now get ready to return to the Warriors, where he plays alongside fellow All-Stars Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson.

This was Durant's 10th All-Star appearance. He has scored 30-plus points in four different All-Star games, which is the most in history.

Durant also took home the All-Star MVP in 2012.
