Coming off of a season in which they set an NBA record with 73 wins and fell five points shy of lifting back-to-back titles, the Warriors have added a one-time MVP and four-time scoring champion in the prime of his career to their core.
Just let that soak in for a second.
It’s no secret that Kevin Durant will make the Warriors scarier. He is one of the elite scorers in the history of the league, and he can get it done in every way imaginable. In his final season with the Thunder, Durant ranked in the 85th percentile or greater when it came to scoring out of the post, spot-ups, isolation, pick-and-roll and transition.
