Kevin Durant [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/kevin-durant/] and the Golden State Warriors [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/golden-state-warriors/] pact drew mixed headlines in 2016. The franchise was fresh off the 73-9 historic season run and adding another generational talent to their roster was seen as an icing on the cake. KD’s arrival in the Bay Area made the Warriors unstoppable. Even though the 14x All-Star won a lot of accolades with the Dubs, he was being annihilated by the fans and the analysts. It was not related to his performance on the court but his decision to join such a star-studded team and take the shortcut to success. During his days as Warrior, Durant won his only two championships, and the Dubs even broke the iconic Michael Jordan [http://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/michael-jordan/] record for the most wins in a season. So, KD was susceptible to a lot of hate at that time but till today, he does not regret his decision and only has good memories about his time being a Warrior. KEVIN DURANT’S DUBS DAYS In an interview with the Ringer [https://www.theringer.com/nba/2024/2/12/24070258/golden-state-warriors-steph-curry-steve-kerr-draymond-green-klay-thompson], Kevin Durant spoke about his time and bond with his teammates and the coach Steve Kerr saying, “It’s fun being a Warrior. It’s fun traveling with the Warriors because it’s a family atmosphere wherever we went. I can have two of my homeboys on a plane with me just because, on a random-a**, one-day road trip. That’s how tight it was.” That was because Durant quickly integrated himself as a part of the championship-winning team with Stephen Curry [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/stephen-curry/], Klay Thompson [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/klay-thompson/], and Draymond Green [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/draymond-green/]. He solidified his position as one of the game’s finest players over his three seasons alongside the Golden State by winning two NBA titles and two Finals MVP honors. Despite the presence of the Warriors’ core star team, Durant’s effect on the court was clearly visible due to his offensive skillset and clutch heroics which drove the Warriors’ success to new heights. And, statistically, he averaged 25.8 points, 7.1 rebounds, 5.4 assists, and 1.5 blocks per game which showed his versatility and offensive brilliance. Steph Curry Scarce [https://www.essentiallysports.com/nba-active-basketball-news-stop-it-draymond-green-finds-kevin-durants-top-five-praise-for-steph-curry-scarce/] So, even though he joined a star-studded team at the peak of his career, his accomplishments cannot be overlooked because KD earned them. He did not win any of them back riding onto someone else or without performing because, in the three seasons, he was with the Dubs, he had made extensive contributions to their success. Due to that, as his NBA journey continues with other teams, his legacy with the Warriors will forever remain eternal.

<h2>Golden State Warriors Franchise History</h2>
The franchise was founded in 1946 and was named the Philadelphia Warriors. Under the influence of the then-owner Peter A. Tyrrell, the organization saw its initial growth. It played a pivotal role in the formation of the Basketball Association of America. They won the championship in the inaugural campaign of the 1946-47 season. Following this, the Warriors again clinched the title in the 1955-56 campaign.

The team saw a change in ownership in 1962. The new owner, Franklin Mieuli, relocated the team to the San Francisco Bay Area. In what became a historical move, the franchise was rebranded with the name San Francisco Warriors. The team saw another ownership change soon, and they started playing the home games in Oakland. The historical moment happened in the 1971/72 season. They adopted the name of the Golden State Warriors and it remained ever since.
<h2>Golden State Warriors <b>Achievements and Wins</b></h2>
The team holds the third place when it comes to success in NBA history. They have seven championships to their name. Only the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers have more titles than the Dubs. They won their first two championships in the season 1946-47 and 1955-56, respectively. After that, though, they had to go through a two-decade-long trophyless time. They eventually returned to the winner's circle in the 1974-75 season. Legends like Rick Barry and Jamaal Wilkes played a crucial role in that return.

Significant challenges marked their following years. They had to wait for their moment to arrive and finally; it did. In the 2010s, they became a wildly successful side. The turning point came in the 2009 NBA draft. The Warriors made the decision to select a young Stephen Curry as their 7th overall pick. What followed changed the game of basketball as a whole, as well as the fate of the team forever.

The start was not easy for Curry. After facing injuries, his time on the court became limited. Since then, he quickly emerged as a basketball sensation. The Warriors' front office made astute moves to strengthen the roster. The Warriors appointment of NBA legend Steve Kerr as head coach. It changed the dynamic of the league ever since. Kerr was able to bring the best of Stephen on the floor alongside bringing others into action. The team's resurgence was driven by the dynamic duo of Curry and Klay Thompson. Along with the rise of Draymond Green as a top-tier defender, the team became a success. Kerr benefited from this as he employed smaller lineups. The organization put together a formidable team.

Soon Stephen won back-to-back MVP awards. Their rivalry with the Cleveland Cavaliers from 2015 to 1018 gave birth to a new era in basketball. After adding Kevin Durant into the mix, the team won three out of four championships in that time. Since 2019, the squad struggled for a bit but soon recovered to win the 2022 NBA championship.
<h2>The Reason Behind the Golden State Warriors Being Called the Dubs</h2>
The Warriors have a special nickname that resonates deeply with their Bay Area fanbase. They're affectionately known as the "Dubs". Their loyal supporters proudly call themselves "Dub Nation." This nickname has an interesting origin story. It all started with a clever abbreviation where "Warriors" was shortened to "Ws". This catchy shorthand eventually evolved into the beloved term "Dubs".
<h2>Golden State Warriors Ownership</h2>
The current principal owner of the team is Joseph Steven Lacob, a successful entrepreneur. Joe's started as a minor shareholder in the Boston Celtics back in 2006. However, in 2010, Lacob, together with Peter Guber, took possession of the franchise from Chris Cohan. The partners took over the Warriors with a significant investment of $450 million. Lacob's ties with the squad go beyond being an owner.

Notably, he had been a dedicated season ticket holder for more than a decade before assuming ownership. Modest beginnings mark the 67-year-old's background. A few financial obstacles initially prevented him from pursuing higher education. He had to face certain challenges due to his family's monetary constraints. Lacob's journey is marked by becoming a serial entrepreneur. 30 of his 50 investments have become notable success.

Rakuten's logo graces the team's jerseys. It happened as a result of a substantial financial investment by the company. The introduction of the logo onto the Warriors' jerseys took place back in 2017.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Who is Kevin Durant?</h2>
Since entering the league as the 2nd overall pick in 2007, Kevin Durant has established himself as one of the most prolific scorers of the game. Standing at 6'10 with guard skills, his ability to get his shot off against any defender changed the dynamics and the prerequisites of the power forward position. He has won an MVP award, 4 scoring titles, with multiple deep playoff runs, and 2 Finals MVPs while winning back-to-back championships with the Warriors. Injuries, however, have plagued the past few seasons since his Achilles tear in 2019.

[caption id="attachment_2467162" align="alignnone" width="4273"]<img class="size-full wp-image-2467162" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2023-12-16T040353Z_348935045_MT1USATODAY22114761_RTRMADP_3_NBA-NEW-YORK-KNICKS-AT-PHOENIX-SUNS.jpg" alt="" width="4273" height="2849" /> Dec 15, 2023; Phoenix, Arizona, USA; Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant (35) makes the pass against the New York Knicks in the first half at Footprint Center.

When healthy, Durant performs at an elite level: a facet of the player that was brought to light in his 2022 playoff run, when he carried the Nets without co-stars Kyrie Irving and Ben Simmons. Though questions linger about his health, his offensive performances have, nevertheless, secured his legacy.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Kevin Durant's early life</b></h2>
Kevin Durant was born on September 29, 1988, in Washington D.C. The forward spent most of his early life in Prince George's County, Maryland. From a young age, Durant was a very talented basketball star. After graduating from Montrose Christian School, he committed to the University of Texas in Austin in 2006 despite offers from multiple popular programs. After one year of college basketball, KD declared for the NBA draft in 2007. According to reports, he later earned a bachelor's in education with a minor in social work.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Kevin Durant's family and personal life</strong></h2>
Kevin Durant's parents are Wanda Durant and Wayne Pratt. He has three siblings, Brianna, Tony, and Rayvonne. Durant's father abandoned the family when he was an infant and his parents eventually divorced later. The two-time Finals MVP's grandmother helped Wanda in raising him. When KD was 13, Pratt re-entered his life and traveled with him around the country for basketball tournaments.

Durant was once engaged to WNBA star Monica Wright. They started dating in 2013 and were engaged a few months later. However, the engagement was called off, and they reportedly broke up in 2014. He once talked about <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/nba-basketball-news-kevin-durant-once-revealed-why-he-broke-up-with-his-fiancee-i-love-this-girl-but-i-didnt-love-her-the-right-way/" target="_self" rel="noopener">the reason behind the failed relationship</a>.

After this, it was rumored KD dated Cassandra Anderson who is a real estate broker. She was spotted attending his games from the spouses' area during his time with the Warriors. There were multiple social media posts of the two together as well. However, the posts were later deleted. It is unclear whether Durant and Cassandra broke up or whether they are trying to keep it private.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Kevin Durant's Net Worth in 2024</b></h2>
Kevin Durant has an estimated net worth of around $300 million, according to various reports. Durant currently plays for the Phoenix Suns, after a blockbuster trade from the <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/brooklyn-nets/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Brooklyn Nets</a> in February 2023. He<span style="font-weight: 400"> is set to earn</span><span style="font-weight: 400"> $46,407,433 during the 2023-24 </span><span style="font-weight: 400">NBA</span><span style="font-weight: 400"> season. The two-time NBA champion also earns tens of millions from endorsements thanks to his popularity and success on the hardwood. Furthermore, KD is also an entrepreneur who invests his well-earned money which has helped him build a business empire. In terms of being the highest-paid athlete in the world, Kevin Durant rounds out the 2023 top ten with $89.1 million.</span>
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Kevin Durant's career timeline</b></h2>
Kevin Durant was one of the best college basketball stars in the country while playing for the University of Texas. He led the Longhorns to a 25-10 record and clinch 4th seed in the NCAA Tournament. Despite a great game from Durant, the team was eliminated in the second round. For his impressive performances, KD won the National Player of the Year award along with other prestigious accolades. After one year with Texas, he declared for the NBA draft in 2007.

Even though there were some reservations about his lanky build, Durant was expected to be a lottery pick. The Seattle SuperSonics selected KD as the 2nd pick of the draft. However, many still thought that the 6'10" youngster would struggle to play against the well-built stars in the NBA. But that was far from the reality. Durant hit the ground running and won the Rookie of the Year award averaging 20 points per game.

After his rookie year, the franchise moved to Oklahoma, rebranding as the <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/oklahoma-city-thunder/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Oklahoma City Thunder</a>. The Slim Reaper continued his ascension and dominated his opponents. The Thunder were one of the best young teams with KD, Russell Westbrook, and James Harden in the lineup. Durant led the team to the 2012 NBA Finals but lost the title to LeBron James' Miami Heat.

KD was arguably in his prime during the 2013-14 season and won the NBA MVP award averaging 32 points. However, team success was still hard to come by as the Thunder were knocked out in the Conference Finals. After two more disappointing seasons in Oklahoma, Durant joined the <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/golden-state-warriors/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Golden State Warriors</a>. He received major criticism for joining the team that beat the Thunder in the Conference Finals the previous year and also for forming a super team.

Durant instantly helped the Warriors with his skill set and experience. The Dubs won two straight titles and KD won the Finals MVP award on both occasions. The Warriors' hunt for a third straight ring in 2019 came up short in the Finals against the Toronto Raptors as KD struggled with injury throughout the playoffs. After some internal issues within the team, Durant left the Warriors and joined the Brooklyn Nets.

This move was again criticized heavily as Kyrie Irving also joined the Nets the same year. However, because of COVID protocol, Irving missed a lot of games. Then in 2021, Durant's former teammate James Harden also joined the team. But the trio barely played together due to various reasons and Harden left after one year. In the 2022-23 season, the Nets started the season poorly but then went on a great run and looked unstoppable. But things changed after Irving requested a trade and moved to the Dallas Mavericks. Durant later joined the <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/phoenix-suns/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Phoenix Suns</a> in a blockbuster move to play alongside Devin Booker and Chris Paul.

In 2023, <span style="font-weight: 400">Durant announced that he would return to wearing the No. 35 jersey, which he had worn throughout his college and professional career before joining the Nets. The same year, h</span><span style="font-weight: 400">e also finished the regular season shooting over 55% from the field, over 40% from three-point range, and over 90% from the free-throw line, becoming the first player in NBA history to achieve those shooting splits in a season. </span><span style="font-weight: 400">Durant also passed Hakeem Olajuwon in October for 12th on the all-time career scoring list and became the 12th player all-time to reach 27,000 career points.</span>

He played college basketball for three seasons with the Washington State Cougars before being picked by the Warriors in the first round of the 2011 NBA Draft as the 11th overall pick.

Klay Thompson suffered a torn ACL during the 2019 NBA Finals and missed the subsequent season. But as the shooting guard was gearing up for his return to the 2021 season, he tore his right Achilles tendon a month before the season opener, which again sidelined him for an entire year. After missing the first couple of months in the 2021-22 campaign, Klay played his game in 941 days against the Cavaliers.

While Thompson took some time to readjust to the game, he became a major part of the Warriors' run to their fourth championship in eight years. This continued his historic run of not losing a playoff series when healthy since the 2016 NBA Finals.
