Kevin Durant on Cooper Flagg: 'He looked like a hell of a player'
Michael Scotto: I asked Kevin Durant for his impressions of potential No. 1 pick Cooper Flagg. He replied, “He looked like a hell of a player. He’s somebody that’s only going to get better with more experience. He’s 17 years old coming in here playing like he’s a vet almost. No emotion.”

On a Team USA squad with different generations, I wrote about how someone from the older generation (Kevin Durant) inspired someone from the newer generation (Anthony Edwards).
I spoke with KD about that role he has held + Ant’s excitement to team up: arizonasports.com/story/3550256/… – 7:54 PM

Kevin Durant won’t play against Canada. The question is, will Steph Curry and LeBron James open the game together on the court? They were with different groups during Tuesday’s Team USA walk through, @TheAthleticNBA nytimes.com/athletic/56272… – 6:45 PM

Let me preface this by saying this Team USA squad shouldn’t be in this position in #Paris2024.
BUT.
Who do you want taking the final shot for Team USA down two with seven seconds left in the gold medal game?
LeBron James.
Kevin Durant.
Stephen Curry.
Someone else. #TeamUSA – 6:16 PM
