While KD is considered to be a very intense player, there is a side to him that not many knows. He is a big fan of Drake and never fails to mention him when he is spoken to about music. When asked about which one is his favorite song, at first, Durant had a hard time choosing. He knew that it would be one of Drake’s only. But after careful consideration, he picked ‘Crew Love’ by Drake.
He even justified why he picked this song and said, “Crew Love by Drake because obviously, you’re going to have a crew out there while you’re hooping. It’s a slower tempo song, and that’s the kind of and that’s the kind of pace I like to play it. So, it matches with, you know, my approach to the game.”
