Kevin Durant is already making his presence felt with Nets

Kevin Durant still has plenty to offer.

Though Durant is stuck rehabbing from a ruptured Achilles tendon as his teammates embark on one of the most anticipated seasons in Nets history, coach Kenny Atkinson said the former MVP has been engaged while on the sideline during practices, sharing what he’s learned over the first 12 seasons of his Hall of Fame career.

“[We’re] just building that relationship. I’ll come over to him in practice, and ask, ‘What do you think of this? What’d you guys do in Golden State? What’d you do in Oklahoma City?’ You’re always having those dialogues,” Atkinson said following Monday’s practice.
