Obviously, a season like 2014/15 doesn’t count, where he was out injured almost the whole season.

Durant joined the SuperSonics in 2007, averaging 20 PPG in his rookie season. He then played for OKC for many years together with Westbrook and Harden. Then he went to Golden State, playing with Curry and Thompson. After that, he joined the Brooklyn Nets and played with James Harden and Kyrie Irving. Lately, he joined the Suns with Devin Booker.

So I would say there are not many players in NBA history who had more star teammates over the years than KD. Can you still say that KD always was the #1 guy at the end of the day? Especially when it goes to the clutch time?

  • 2016 Westbrook
  • 2016-2019 Curry
  • 2021 Harden
  • 2023 Booker

All have an argument over KD.

I said argument, I think KD is better than all but Curry (and when comparing season-to-season I think Booker is better in 2023 due to the playoffs) but there is definitely an argument to be made that Russ outplayed KD in the 2016 regular and postseason and Harden ended up higher on the MVP tally than KD and arguably outplayed KD in the first round.

There is a difference between being better and having a better season, the post is making it a season-by-season thing.
