Former NBA player Baron Davis gave his opinion on the matter on an episode of the “Load Management” podcast by Complex.
“I would probably say somebody like KD.”

Right. play by the rules, you know what I mean? was dealt you know what I mean? Dub the car, the hand that they played that shit, you know what I mean? And that’s it worked in his favor.

But with Anthony Davis by his side, LeBron has a significant chance for a repeat. However, for Kevin Durant, he has an even tougher task at hand. After sitting out the entire season recovering from an Achilles injury, he will be making a return.
Additionally, KD will be playing for a different team after three long years. But teaming up with Kyrie should make the job easier for him.
