"Good sh*t 7," Durant wrote in his story.
Kevin Durant's NIKE KD 4 was initially released in 2011, Durant's fourth NBA season and is the most successful edition of his signature KD line with Nike. Durant is now in his 17th NBA season, his third with the Phoenix Suns. He appeared in 75 games last year, earning second-team All-NBA honors and his 14th All-Star appearance.
