Thunder beat Kings, clinch West OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Kevin Durant scored 29 points, Russell Westbrook had 21 before getting ejected in the final 3 minutes and the Oklahoma City Thunder clinched the top seed in the Western Conference playoffs by beating the Sacramento Kings 104-95 on Monday night. Tyreke Evans, the Kings' secondleading scorer, did not return after grabbing at his troublesome left knee following a drive to the basket late in the first quarter. Durant hit a 3-pointer and Westbrook set up Serge Ibaka for a twohanded slam during a string of 11 straight Thunder points midway through the third quarter that stretched the lead to 75-51. Sacramento was able to cut the deficit to 11 early in the fourth quarter and force coach Scott Brooks to put Durant and Westbrook back in and close out the game. Westbrook didn't make it until the very end, drawing his second technical foul of the game with 2:28 left after spiking the basketball following Travis Outlaw's dunk that brought Sacramento within 100-88. The two technical fouls brought Westbrook's total to 15 for the season, one short of the number that would draw him an automatic onegame suspension. It appeared as though he — along with Durant and Ibaka — wouldn't return after Westbrook was called for a technical foul with 3:04 left in the third quarter for complaining to referee David Guthrie that he had been hit in the face with no foul called. Westbrook continued complaining until Guthrie instructed reserve Daniel Orton to lead Westbrook to the bench with Oklahoma City leading 76-55. But the Kings soon pieced together a 12-2 comeback late in the third quarter, and Brooks called timeout after Sacramento scored six straight points to cut the lead to 84-73 with 91⁄2 minutes left. Durant and Westbrook returned, and Sacramento couldn't get within double digits until Jimmer Fredette's four-point play with 7.8 seconds to go. Isaiah Thomas led the Kings with 16 points, Outlaw scored 15 and Cole Aldrich had a double-double for the second straight game by tying his career best with 12 points and setting a SAN JOSE (AP) — The president of the San Jose Earthquakes says he is appalled that forward Alan Gordon directed an anti-gay slur at an opponent. Dave Kaval said Monday that Gordon's actions have let down the team's fans and he will do whatever is necessary so the team can be ''viewed as a beacon of diversity, community, and equality.'' Gordon was ejected in the second half Sunday after receiving a pair of yellow cards involving fouls on other players. But minutes before his ejection, he was seen on the television broadcast using a slur toward Portland's Will Johnson. Gordon apologized after the match and said his comments don't reflect his views. Gordon could face a three-game suspension from MLS. Raiders sign 3 to tenders ALAMEDA (AP) — Defensive back Brandian Ross, offensive lineman Alex Parsons and running back Jeremy Stewart all have signed their exclusive rights tenders with the Oakland Raiders. The team announced the signings on Monday, the first day of official offseason workouts for the Raiders. Ross started one game last season and played both cornerback and safety in 14 games. Parsons played sparingly last season after starting in place of injured center Stefen Wisniewski last season. Stewart had 25 carries for 101 yards in four games last season. 49ers tender CB Brock AP photo Oklahoma City Thunder guard Reggie Jackson (15) dunks over Sacramento Kings center Cole Aldrich (45) Monday night. career high with 13 rebounds. Demarcus Cousins, who was allowed to play after the NBA rescinded his 16th technical foul of the season, had just seven points and six rebounds and didn't play in the fourth quarter. Evans, who missed 16 games from late November through early January because of left knee injuries, clutched at the front of that knee as he lay under the basket following an awkward land- ing. His right foot appeared to slip on the court as his left leg folded up underneath him. Outlaw and a trainer helped him off the court and down a tunnel to the locker room with 2 minutes left in the first quarter. A team spokesman described the injury as a left quadriceps strain. Evans is a restricted free agent at the end of the season. SANTA CLARA (AP) — San Francisco 49ers cornerback Tramaine Brock has signed his one-year tender. The team announced Monday that Brock had signed the contract he had been previously offered. Brock had 16 tackles and a forced fumble last season for the NFC champions, who lost 3431 to the Baltimore Ravens in the Super Bowl. He also shared the team lead with 15 tackles on special teams. Brock joined the 49ers as an undrafted rookie free agent in 2010. In 2011, he made two interceptions in 11 games.
