Phoenix Suns star forward Kevin Durant believes that there is no reason why he should not be in the conversation regarding the Greatest player Of All Time (GOAT) in the history of the NBA.

The 35-year-old has been an incredible servant of the game for nearly the last two decades where he has multiple NBA titles as well. He was also twice named NBA Finals MVP in 2017 and 2018.

Durant was recently quoted in a report where he stated that there is no reason why he should be in the discussion regarding the actual NBA GOAT player. "Why shouldn't I be in that? That's the question you should ask. Why not? What haven't I done?” he asked.

Durant is having a fabulous season once again where he is averaging 28.9 points per game, fifth best in the league. This is the 17th consecutive season where he is averaging more than 25 points per game, an astonishing record to say the least. To go with that, he is also averaging 6.2 rebounds and 5.7 assists per game.

In the previous Suns game against the Indian Pacers, the Washington-born ended up registering 40 points including nine rebounds and two assists. It was his best outing in a game this season.
