Kevin Durant may no longer be a member of the Golden State Warriors, but Warriors head coach Steve Kerr still praises his former Finals MVP.
In an interview with Sports Illustrated’s Michael Rosenberg, Kerr revealed some candid thoughts about Durant.
“KD, to me, still remains the most talented player in the league today,” Kerr told Rosenberg. “His frame, his height – 6’11” – his ability to protect the rim defensively and then get any attacking shot.”
Regardless of what Kevin Durant does in his post-Warriors career, he will always be mentioned with this franchise and Steph Curry for eternity. At the end of the day, the two won two NBA championships together and went to the NBA Finals for three consecutive years.

At the same time, Durant’s tenure will always be very polarizing. Some fans will think of him as the guy who took Finals MVPs from Steph Curry, or the guy who didn’t really need to come to Golden State, but others will just see him as the best player in the NBA.
The one thing that’s irrefutable is that Kevin Durant is one of the greatest scorers in NBA history and 1 of 1 in that regard. There is only one Kevin Durant, there has only ever been one and there never will be another.
