Warriors' Kevin Durant named Humanitarian of Year for positive leadership in community

Golden State Warriors star Kevin Durant has won the Muhammad Ali Sports Humanitarian Award, given annually to an athlete whose leadership "has created a positive impact on their community through sports."

The award was handed out as part of the fourth annual Sports Humanitarian of the Year Awards in Los Angeles. The awards were presented by ESPN and sponsored by Bristol-Myers Squibb Company.

Just over a month after leading the Warriors to their second straight NBA title, Finals MVP Durant was saluted for his off-the-court efforts.
