Kevin Durant Shares His Mount Rushmore Of Small Forwards

During the Kevin Durant sweepstakes this past offseason, news surfaced that the 33-year old superstar was not enamored with head coach Steve Nash and general manger Sean Marks to an extent that he even asked Nets owner Joe Tsai to choose between him and the pair.

It then appeared as the Nets and Durant reached a breaking point from there, it didn’t take too long for the organization to mend their situation with Durant, later on announcing that they have decided to run it back next season.

While Steve Nash indeed is gone now, Durant is playing some incredible basketball right now, with season averages of 30.8 points, 6.5 rebounds and 5.8 assists on 51.9% shooting from the field, and 91.8% from the line. 

The two-time Finals MVP is proving once again, that he not only is one of the best small forwards in the game today, but also one of the best small forwards in history of the game.

Durant now was asked about his Mount Rushmore of small forwards and named LeBron James, Kawhi Leonard and Larry Bird.
