I appreciate all the quick interactions with everybody from support staff to teammates distant cousins, it&#8217;s all a family that I&#8217;m grateful to be apart of, no matter what. I truly believe this nba is a one big community. Much love to Arizona. Houston, Can&#8217;t Wait!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Rockets made this move to compete for a championship. While he turns 37 in September, Durant has averaged 25 points per game over the last 16 seasons, and he is the only player in NBA history to average that many points for four different franchises. He&#8217;s a two-time NBA champion, a former MVP and finals MVP, a 15-time All Star and a four-time Olympic Gold Medalist &#8212; which is the most in Men&#8217;s Olympic Basketball history.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Rockets are coming off their first 50-win season since 2018-19. They finished sixth in defensive rating (111.7) and second in rebound percentage (53.6%) last year, per CBS Sports Research. Houston has been active this offseason apart from the Durant acquisition.
