Even though Kevin Durant is no longer a member of the Golden State Warriors, he has nothing but love for Steph Curry and the Warriors.
When Steph Curry finally won Finals MVP last season, Durant made sure he had a message for him. He revealed this message to Michael Lee of the Washington Post.
“The way you played in that final is the way I like to see you play,” Durant told Curry when they crossed paths this summer.
Kevin Durant may have hated some aspects of the Warriors’ championship win, but he still considers his former Golden State teammates family.
“It’s my family there,” Durant said. “I can be a Brooklyn Net and all of you can be the Golden State Warriors, and it will always be love. … When they succeed, I succeed, because I’m a part of that story forever.
All of Durant’s experiences throughout the NBA have helped him grow as a human being. The lessons he learned as a player are lessons he will apply in life.
“It’s so much you can learn as an NBA player,” Durant said. “Life lessons in basketball. The case around the NBA. There is so much to learn here. So every stop along the way is an experience that allows me to speed up and be better in the next part of my life.
Kevin Durant’s coming of age saga has been a really interesting thing to watch in real time. From once the most loved player, to the most hated player, and now a player somewhat under the radar. It’s just Kevin Durant.
