NBA Twitter had a good laugh at the video. The commentary on Durant prompted humor as well. He touched upon different plays from different angles and showed how exactly Durant got away with “charges”.
Durant also has one of the best nicknames in the league: The ‘Slim Reaper’. The name fits perfectly as it describes both his tall and lean physique along with how much destruction and damage his presence on the court has brought about his opponents. He himself once said, “Because I am skinny, and I do my work at night“.
Kevin Durant so far this season
The Brooklyn Nets have had to play in the last few games without their main man. Kevin Durant has been sidelined owing to an MCL strain. It is reported that the evaluation would be done in two weeks to a month.
He has been phenomenal this season, leading the Nets in scoring. He is averaging 29.9 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 5.3 assists per game so far.

Yahoo! Sports noted last month, “The fact that he can bury those kinds of looks, fading away, off the dribble, or even over two defenders at such a high rate is unlike anything we’ve ever seen.”
