Houston Rockets writer Justin Levine recently reported that Jabari Smith has been spending a lot of time around Kevin Durant. "I was told Jabari Smith Jr. has basically just chained himself to KD," Levine said. "He’s asked the staff to tailor his entire schedule to being with KD at all times."
This is the kind of thing that fans love to see for several reasons. It suggests that Durant has taken mentorship seriously, and has committed to helping bring up a younger guy. Seeing this happening also reinforces the idea that KD is on board with aligning himself to Smith with the mindset of helping him grow.
