Kevin Durant has scored over 30,000 points in his career. He's been established as one of the game's best for over a decade. He's on the backend of his remarkable hoops journey. In 2025, though, he's still expected to be a top-flight, go-to guy for the Houston Rockets. He knows that, Ime Udoka knows that, we all know that. And he will be able to provide that. Even better, the build of this roster will allow him to essentially be just that.
In other words, Durant will be surrounded by massively talented and versatile defenders and won't be expected to carry much defensive load — specifically on the interior, which is a welcome sign for a 37 year-old.
