But that did not stop Devin Booker from taking Phoenix to the end. With Bradley Beal also looking to stay healthy and on the floor for as long as possible, having KD would have finally completed the Big 3.

Players moving to different teams when everything works in their favor is a common occurrence anywhere. Be it the field of sports or a corporate organization. So, when KD entered free agency, he decided to try his hand with the Brooklyn Nets. While it was a loss to the team, Curry and Durant had started a beautiful friendship that they continue to this day.
“The most misunderstood dude”: Steph on KD
The three years that Curry and Durant played together were more than enough for Steph to understand KD than anyone ever did. He has always stuck by his opinion on the co-champion of the Warriors. Back in 2022, Stephen Curry reportedly said that getting to know who Durant is as a person has opened his eyes to the man behind the player.
He further clarified that KD might have had to deal with certain circumstances that have “hurt” his ability to trust people around him. Clearly, the Warriors’ superstar has earned Durant’s trust, making it into his inner sanctum. More recently, Curry reiterated their solid connection and the fact that there’s a lot to Kevin Durant than on the surface.
