Kevin Durant Joins The Warriors
Kevin Durant confirmed on Monday that he is leaving the Oklahoma City Thunder to join the Golden State Warriors.
“The primary mandate I had for myself in making this decision was to have it based on the potential for my growth as a player – as that has always steered me in the right direction,” Durant said in his post on the Players Tribune website.
“But I am also at a point in my life where it is of equal importance to find an opportunity that encourages my evolution as a man: moving out of my comfort zone to a new city and community which offers the greatest potential for my contribution and personal growth.”
Durant is a seven-time NBA All Star and the NBA’s MVP in 2014.
“It really pains me to know that I will disappoint so many people with this choice, but I believe I am doing what I feel is the right thing at this point in my life and my playing career.”
