Since the tragic death of Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna Bryant, and seven other people, there have been countless stories, tributes, and outpourings of respect coming from all walks of life.
However, the basketball world is where people are finding it particularly difficult to adjust to life without Bryant. And one of the people with the most to say was Kevin Durant.
Durant and Bryant hadn’t shared much court time together with their major overlap being the 2012 Summer Olympics. Despite that, Durant had no qualms about who he felt rivaled only Michael Jordan as the greatest player of all time.
