In the game where the Rockets defeated the Grizzlies 119-109, Kevin Durant once again took center stage, finishing with 25 points, 10 assists, and 6 rebounds. His performance was crucial in his team's ongoing bid to secure a top-four spot in the NBA's Western Conference.

After the final buzzer, Jackson didn't hold back his annoyance concerning the calls Durant receives, subtly criticizing the referees' treatment of the star player.

“It’s crazy how much the refs can… suck up to somebody. Tari Eason told me, ‘Man, you’re not KD’… On this court? I’m the closest thing to him… KD is the GOAT, but for the rest of us, we work just as hard as him, we tie our shoes just like him,” Jackson stated emphatically.
