On Wednesday morning, Kevin Durant reacted on Twitter:
Durant, of course, won his first championship in June.
And he was named NBA Finals MVP after averaging 35.2 points, 8.2 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 1.6 blocks per game, while shooting over 55 percent from the field and over 47 percent from distance.

Kuzma was selected 27th overall by the Lakers in June's draft.
In seven Summer League games, he shot 48 percent (24 for 50) from 3-point territory.
“I didn’t know I was that aggressive," Kuzma told Lakers.com digital reporter Joey Ramirez. "I wasn’t like that in college. Definitely not that aggressive. When I’m locked in and focused, I can do pretty much anything I want.”
As a junior at Utah last season, Kuzma averaged 16.4 points and 9.3 rebounds per game.
