It looks like he got so much better over the last couple of years, that’s just from the work that you put in. So, I’m impressed with him, I can’t wait to see him in the league. See how everything pans out for him in the league and I’m looking forward to playing against him as well,” Durant shared his thoughts on the projected No.1 Draft pick for the next season.
