On Lacob and Golden State potentially retiring his jersey, Durant said: “He should. Look at the résumé. That would warrant me to get a jersey retirement, right? Do I want to be honored by a franchise I put work in for? Of course, I would love that. I had some great moments there. I built some solid relationships there. Yeah, man. Hell yeah, that would be sweet. I love that organization, man. I love my time there, seriously. Me leaving, people shouldn’t doubt that, because I left there.

More on this storyline
“It is hard for me to compare anything to that era. There is nothing for me to compare that to, whether we win or not. It’s different situations. All of that has helped me to step into this situation knowing what to maybe to expect or know what is coming as a veteran.” -via Andscape / October 23, 2023
Clemente Almanza: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander on people who think the midrange is dead: “If you look at it, the most prolific scorers in the NBA and over the years have shot midrangers – Kevin Durant, Kobe, TMac, Devin Booker right now, Bradley Beal, Jimmy Butler – at the end of the day, you just make shots.” -via Twitter @CAlmanza1007 / October 23, 2023
Duane Rankin: Kevin Durant’s only game at Golden State since he left was Feb, 13, 2021 during pandemic. No fans, but #Warriors said then they’d replay tribute video when he returned to play before fans. Confirmed short video will be played during pre-game intros Tuesday for his return. #Suns pic.twitter.com/XhJSmA5RZ0 -via Twitter @DuaneRankin / October 22, 2023
