Seeing that the Texas basketball program produced what is now the NBA’s best player in Golden State Warriors’ superstar Kevin Durant proves how good it can be and how good it can recruit. Durant is arguably the best player in program history, and he is now proving himself as the best player in the world too.
Once again, the Warriors knocked off LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers to win its second consecutive NBA Championship. Durant was a huge part of both those runs to the NBA Finals. The season before that, he gained a ton of criticism from his departure from the Oklahoma City Thunder to make the jump over to the Warriors.
