In all the injuries and general dysfunction with a new roster and all the new role players for Phoenix, the Slim Reaper still keeps finding a way to be uber efficient no matter who's with him on the floor.

He's also 2nd in the league in PPG behind Embiid (31.9, Fox also has 31.9 but only 7 games played). I don't think KD is appreciated nearly enough for ridiculous production year in and year out.

It's clear though that Booker and Durant are a special duo, and if they could ever get Beal back they could do something. But with the Clippers, Warriors and Lakers not having seperated from the Suns yet in early season, they still have a chance at top 4 seeding imo.

He’s playing best player in the league kind of basketball right now

I feel as if KD is slowly losing haters?

He's had similar starts to the season since post GSW but injuries. Hope this season he stays healthy and wins a ring and finals mvp

Him shattering the all time NBA record (ppg) for an age 35 season as well as lebron for the age 38 season in the same season.

Well, at least unless LeBron can finally qualify and not fall apart and short as usual (last couple years).

There hasn't been one season in the last 5 that KD has played more games than LeBron so that second part doesn't really make sense
