Kevin Durant: “Giannis Antetokounmpo Could End Up Being The Best Player To Ever Play” 

We’ve known for a long time that Kevin Durant is a big fan of Giannis Antetokounmpo. But what Durant said about Giannis now, is the highest praise you can get.

In a Q&A video posted on KD’s YouTube page, Durant was asked who his ‘favorite players to watch’ are. The reigning Finals MVP instantly named the Greek Freak, also mentioning Stephen Curry, C.J. McCollum and Anthony Davis, but then returned to talk about Giannis who could be come the Greatest of All-Time.

“I like long, athletic guys. That’s just who I am. The Greek Freak I think is a force, and I’ve never seen anything like him. And his ceiling is probably—he could end up being the best player to ever play if he really wanted to. That’s pretty scary to think about. But he’s by far my favorite player to watch.”
