NBA Players React To Kevin Durant’s Unreal Game 3 Performance

Kevin Durant had a historic Game 3. He finished with a playoff career-high 43 points, adding 13 rebounds and 7 assists on 15/23 shooting, while also hitting the game-deciding dagger three pointer. The Warriors now have a comfortable 3-0 Finals lead and are looking to become back-to-back champions this or next week. No team in history has ever come back from being down 3-0, but Kevin Durant stayed cool in his post-game interview:

“I don’t want to downplay anything, but I don’t want to act like this is the end of the road. So just get back to work tomorrow and figure out a better game plan.”

Most NBA players who aren’t part of the Cavaliers or Warriors were obviously watching the game as well. Some were just as amazed about Durant’s performance as we were.
