“As a long-time fan, it’s surreal to now be playing alongside Kevin Durant,” Booker remarked. “I remember tweeting in 2011 that Durant was my favorite player, although LeBron was the best. It’s funny how things come full circle. Hearing stories about Kevin’s relentless work ethic and his passion for the game, and then seeing it firsthand, has been incredible. It’s clear that basketball is his sole focus, and that aligns perfectly with my own mentality.”
