The Golden State Warriors’ Kevin Durant was the focal point of a YouTube livestream event Tuesday when he was interviewed by established YouTubers What’s Inside, First We Feast and Ryan ToysReview in virtual reality.

The VR experience could be seen on Cardboard, Daydream View and PSVR. Fans could watch the event on desktop and mobile from Durant’s YouTube page that has grown in popularity with more than 389,000 subscribers since its launch in April. His videos have generated nearly 11 million views.

The MVP of the NBA Finals, Durant reflected on the chasm between himself and the media, and how that brought him to YouTube in the first place.
