Last summer Kevin Durant left the Oklahoma City Thunder for the Golden State Warriors and this summer it panned out for KD as he received his first NBA Title and first NBA Finals MVP. His partnership with the Warriors was looked at under a tight microscope because in 2016 his Thunder team had these Warriors down 3-1 in the Western Conference Finals in turn to lose. After the Warriors won they lost the Finals to the Cavs after being up 3-1, a lot of circumstances happened for the Cavs to make history, but it happened. After KD held it down in the finals Nike had a commercial ready to go for arguably the best player on the planet, I said arguably.
KD averaged 35.2 points, 8.2 rebounds, 5.4 assists, 1.0 steals, 1.6 blocks on 55.6% from the field, 47.4% from three and 92.7% from the line during five games in the finals.
