Kevin Durant: 'We must improve our performances'

Kevin Durant believes that the Oklahoma City Thunder must improve following their tight victory over the Utah Jazz.

Kevin Durant has insisted that the Oklahoma City Thunder must improve following their tense victory over the Utah Jazz on Wednesday night.

The Thunder started the new season with a 101-98 win over the Jazz but Durant, who scored 42 points, believes that there is more to come from his team.

"Any win is a good win and I don't want to downplay it, but we have to get a lot better," Durant told reporters.

The 25-year-old was also eager to praise his teammates for their contribution to his impressive statistics at the EnergySolutions Arena.

"I just tried to be aggressive and I think my teammates put me in great positions to be aggressive. I need to finish some of those `and-1s' and make more shots," he added.

Oklahoma face the Minnesota Timberwolves in their second game of the season on Friday.
