Kevin Durant and the Brooklyn Nets got another dub added to their record after their comfortable victory against the Ney York Knicks. The team didn’t only get the win, but also got a set of young fans after a kind gesture by their marquee player who has carried them on his shoulders almost throughout the season, through controversies, injuries, trades and a lot more things which almost ruined their playoff aspirations.
The Nets who had been on a slumpy run for quite long time a few weeks ago now seem to be back on track with Durant being back and Harden’s exit from team. The trade seems to be doing them more good than harm, and that is all the team could’ve asked for.
Kevin Durant has kept the hopes of the Brooklyn Nets alive throughout the season, even when Kyrie Irving has been absent due to his vaccine mandate fiasco and even when James Harden wasn’t playing with the team due to his own whims and fancies of going to the Philadelphia 76ers (which have finally taken place). The player singlehandedly managed to bring his team out of situations where NBA pundits felt the team would succumb to pressure. Durant isn’t only a dominant player on court, but also a person good at heart, and that was highlighted in this really sweet gesture shown by Durant post game.
The Nets vs Knicks game was a comfortable win for the former as they cruised past the latter with a 12-point margin, but Durant didn’t really seem satisfied with getting just the dub, in fact, he needed some fans and their jerseys. Let us take a closer look at this sequence where Kevin Durant made a really sweet gesture for some very young fans after the Nets’ game against the Knicks.
