Kevin Durant Will Now Wear No. 7 for Brooklyn Nets, Switching From 35

Kevin Durant announced he will now wear No. 7 for the Nets, switching from No. 35 after his move to Brooklyn from Golden State.

Durant shared a jersey with the new number on Twitter, before expanding on the change from his 35 Ventures account, saying he's starting a new chapter of his life. It's his first career jersey number change.

Durant will likely miss all of next season after rupturing his Achilles in Game 5 of the NBA Finals. He announced plans to sign with the Nets last week when free agency began.
