Kevin Durant’s third season with the Golden State Warriors and his twelfth in this glorious league is shaping up to be an important one.
One can say that Durant’s tenure with the team has already been a resounding success. The team won back-to-back titles while Durant claimed Finals MVP in both series. Even with this early and immediate success, the 2018-19 season will likely have a great effect on Durant and his legacy as a member of the Warriors. It will determine a great deal about his future, where he ranks amongst the other great players in the NBA today (and throughout its history), and even where he will be next season.
