The durability of Golden State Warriors’ center Kevon Looney has been nothing short of incredible over the last two years, with the 27-year-old having appeared in all 82 games in consecutive seasons.
This would be a major feat for anyone, but it’s particularly extraordinary for Looney. In his early twenties he missed dozens of games due to multiple hip surgeries, making him an undeniably slower player with moments where he didn’t look like lasting long in the league. No one thought he would become the unwavering ironman he has today.
In the modern NBA, it would be unprecedented for a player to have three seasons without a game missed.
