The Brooklyn Nets officially added forward Kevin Durant on Sunday, announcing his arrival as part of a sign-and-trade deal with the Golden State Warriors a week after the time All-Star announced his intentions to join Brooklyn.
His tremendous abilities and dedication to his craft have made him as talented an offensive player our game has ever seen and we, as well as all of Brooklyn, are thrilled to welcome Kevin and his family to the Nets.
Durant tweeted a photo Sunday evening on social media of a Nets No. I will always honor him and honor the number But as I start this new chapter in my basketball life, the number I'll be wearing on my back is the number 7 next time you see me on the floor.
One time Brooklyn. This isn't so much a business ploy -- Durant would have sold enough jerseys as is with his old number due to switching teams. Maybe he's simply changing numbers to mark a fresh start as he continues the second half of his career -- kind of similar to what Kobe Bryant did prior to the season with the Los Angeles Lakers. Although Bryant's jersey number change had more historical context to it considering he wore No.
Durant produced an incredible playoff performance against the Bucks in game 5 which cemented his legacy as one of the all-time greats. KD and co have looked outstanding on the court. With Blake Griffin having a renaissance spell and Harden being a playmaker, Durant has been on fire.
PJ Tucker found it hard to guard Durant because of his incredible shot-making ability. The Brooklyn Nets face the Milwaukee Bucks in an important game seven to determine the finalists in the Conference Finals. The AAU coach was brutally murdered. The AAU is a platform where most future basketball players get to put their best foot forward under some of the best college coaches. KD and Craig had a special bond. He wore the number 35 right from his rookie year till his final year with GSW.
