Kevin Durant, affectionately known as “KD,” is an offensive talisman who is one of the most lethal scorers in NBA history. Drafted second overall in the 2007 NBA Draft, Durant has a never-seen-before offensive package. At almost 7 feet tall, Durant defies the conventional norms of a big man with superb agility. He has elite ball-handling skills which makes it seem like he is a guard in a forward's body. His quick footwork and mesmerizing handles take him easily to the hoop where he finishes plays with emphatic dunks and graceful layups.
Durant is easily one of the greatest in basketball history with his ability to stop and pop from anywhere. With one of the smoothest jump shots in NBA history, KD’s mid-range off-the-dribble shot is nothing short of lethal. What sets Durant apart is his high-shot release, which is almost impossible to block.
