David West has played in four different cities over 14 seasons since graduating from Xavier in 2003.
But in his first season with the Golden State Warriors - much like teammate Kevin Durant - he earned his first-ever NBA title.
Reactions via Twitter:
West ranks second behind only Byron Larkin on Xavier's all-time scoring list with 2,132 points.
In winning the NBA championship, West's Warriors denied fellow Xavier alum James Posey, an assistant coach for the Cleveland Cavaliers, his second consecutive title.
