SALT LAKE CITY -- Kevin Durant scored 22 of his 42 points from the free throw line, including a pair with 6.4 seconds remaining, to lift the Oklahoma City Thunder to a 101-98 win over the Utah Jazz on Wednesday night. Reggie Jackson scored 14 points and had two clutch free throws of his own with 10.5 seconds to play. Thabo Sefolosha also had 14 points for the Thunder. Gordon Hayward had a chance to tie the game for the Jazz but missed a long 3-pointer just before the buzzer. Alec Burks had 19 of his 24 points in the second half for Utah and closed the gap to 99-98 on a dunk after Hayward came up with the ball in a mad scramble with 10 seconds left. Oklahoma City led 79-64 before Burks began slicing through the Thunder defence for an array of acrobatic shots. In a span bridging the third and fourth quarter, the third-year reserve guard scored 13 of Utahs 15 points and assisted on the other basket. Journeyman Mike Harris sank all three free throws after Durant fouled him on a desperation shot to beat the shot clock to cut Oklahoma Citys lead to 86-83. After another Durant free throw, Harris dunked to bring Utah within two. Harris, the last man to make the 15-man roster, drew the challenge of guarding Durant and tried to get physical with him. A couple minutes after hitting a jumper to draw Utah within three points, Harris fouled out with 2:58 to play. The Jazz trailed 95-92 when Burks had his pass stolen by Durant, who was in turn knocked to the floor by Favours. Slowing rising back to his feet with the help of teammates, Durant scowled at the Jazz players who inflicted so many bruises on opening night. Although Oklahoma City posted the best record in the Western Conference last season, the Thunder were uncertain how well their offence would run without Russell Westbrook, who is expected to miss the first month of the season after two knee surgeries, and reliable scorer Kevin Martin, who was signed as free agent by Minnesota. Jackson and Sefolosha acquitted themselves well but the Thunder had little success inside. The Jazz outscored Oklahoma City 56 to 32 in the paint. Derrick Favours had 15 points and nine rebounds while Ebes Kanter tallied 14 points and 10 boards. Favours, who is not accustomed to attracting so much defensive attention, is now a focal point of the Jazz offence. Several times he found cutters whose defenders came to double the big forward and recorded a career-high five assists but also forced passes and committed six turnovers. Like the Thunder, the Jazz have their own uncertainties at the point with lottery pick Trey Burke shelved for a couple months as he recovers from surgery on his fractured right index finger.
