Kevin Durant still puts in the work

KD has never been one to not work on his craft. The master scorer is always working on his game and improving his already packed skill set. With him wanting to be the best player, the work comes in naturally. Ever since his early days with OKC, the 11-time All-Star has improved and pushed himself past his limit every time. Recently, James Harden spoke about KD and how the results of his work show.

He said, “I mean, obviously we all know how special Kevin is. It’s so easy for him. He’s put in the work. Like it looks easy for him. I’m sure he feels that way as well. He wants to be the best to ever play the game. And so he puts the work in and time and effort into it, and the results show on the court.”

Durant has worked his way up ever since entering the league. Kobe Bryant even said he was his toughest opposition to guard because of his skill set. He explained how, in a matter of a few years, he worked on his weakness and became a force. It is a drill for Durant to just keep working hard and becoming the best version of himself on the court.
