1 -- Seattle rookie Kevin Durant’s first game winner as a Sonic. Heading into the second overtime Durant had not scored since the 6:51 mark of the third quarter. But Durant had five points in the second overtime, including the clutch, 3-pointer from the top of the circle over fellow rookie Al Horford to give the Sonics a 126-123 double-overtime win over the Atlanta Hawks.

41 -- The amount of points Damien Wilkins scored in his homecoming to Atlanta. With father Gerald Wilkins watching, along with several family and friends, Wilkins put on a show, finishing 15-of-20 from the floor, including 4-of-5 from the 3-point arc. Wilkins also was 7-of-10 from the free-throw line

13 -- The number of turnovers Seattle had in 58 minutes. Not bad considering Seattle came in averaging 19.7 turnovers a contest.

39 -- The Number of points Atlanta’s Joe Johnson had. Every time the Hawks needed a bucket, the all-star guard delivered.

3:46 -- The time Bremerton native Marvin Williams fouled out in the second overtime. Williams finished with 18 points, seven rebounds and four assists. But the play was big because Williams is one of Atlanta’s better defenders, and the Hawks had to go small down the stretch with Tyronn Lue and Salim Stoudamire at the guard spots, which gave Seattle an advantage on the boards.

Overheard -- “Durant pounded his chest at the scorer’s table after that last-second dagger yelling, “What in the (bleep) did I tell y’all,” to the folks on hand at Philips Arena as the buzzer sounded. He was mobbed by his teammates.

Did you see that? -- Running a picture-perfect 3-on-1 break, Damien Wilkins hit Chris Wilcox with a bounce pass coming down the left side of the line, and Wilcox glided in for the one-handed jam, bringing some oohs from the crowd.
