Kevin Durant back after night off

— -- Kevin Durant returned to the starting lineup Saturday night as the Oklahoma City Thunder took on the Philadelphia 76ers.

Durant missed the Thunder's 101-83 victory over the Boston Celtics on Friday night due to a shoulder injury.

Durant aggravated the injury in a win Wednesday over the San Antonio Spurs.

An MVP candidate, Durant has scored at least 30 points in nine straight games and the Thunder (34-10) are riding a six-game winning streak.
