It’s safe to assume that Kevin Durant is still on cloud nine after capturing his first-ever NBA Championship with the Golden State Warriors and nabbing the NBA Finals MVP title in the process.
A week after achieving every professional player’s dream, the 28-year-old lanky forward expressed his gratitude to the entire city of San Francisco.
But instead of posting on social media, Durant opted for the more traditional newspaper ad, in the San Francisco Chronicle.
As posted by the Warriors Talk fan page on Twitter, KD had nothing but kind words for his teammates, coaches, ownership, staff, front office and fans “for making my initial season with the Warriors an incredible and exhilarating championship experience.”
“Great accomplishments are never achieved alone and are best when shared with others,” he wrote, along with his personal signature.
The message was accompanied by a photo of Durant, who was visibly all smiles during the Warriors Victory Parade earlier this week.
The broadsheet even showed Durant’s creative side, as he used the word “THANK YOU” as initials to every person he was grateful for.
Meanwhile, Durant is expected to stay with the Dubs next season after declining his player option, according to ESPN’s Chris Haynes. Khristian Ibarrola /ra
