Rockets traded for KD to close games not to wave towels in the 4th. Let him cook! 👀🔥 Kevin Durant isn’t trying to hear anything about a minutes restriction 😭 The Houston Rockets want to lower his workload this season, but KD’s response was simple: “Why? … I’m better on the court. The team is better when I’m on the court.” Even at this stage of his career, Kevin Durant still wants to be out there as much as possible. After ranking near the top of the NBA in minutes per game last season, KD clearly believes he can continue handling a major workload and helping Houston win every night. You have to love the mentality from the Slim Reaper. 🔥 The Rockets obviously want to keep him fresh for a deep playoff run, but good luck convincing one of the greatest scorers ever that he needs to sit more. How many minutes per game should KD play this season? 👀 #houstonrockets #nbatalk #kevindurant #nbatalk #nbamediaday Follow duranthighlights for more!
