Kevin Durant was on two, count’em two podcasts Thursday but the one quote that caught Nets fans’ attention was the one on Twitter Spaces with Banksy Gonzalez, better known on Twitter as Boogie Bousins. Here’s what he said… “Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson are the best shooters I’ve played with,” Durant said. “Joe Harris is definitely right up there, getting there.”

Michael Scotto: Kevin Durant (@Kevin Durant) spoke on Twitter Spaces with @bansky. Nic Claxton’s ceiling: “The sky is the limit. He could be how good as he wants to be.” “Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson are the best shooters I’ve played with. Joe Harris is definitely right up there, getting there.”
For the record, going into tonight’s game vs. the Pelicans, he’s at 48.4 percent, best number of his career and third in the NBA. He’s taken and made far more than the two players ahead of him, Tony Snell and Joe Ingels. And he keeps moving up the All-Time list, now shooting 43.7 percent for his career, fifth best ever. Harris admits that the 50 percent milestone would be an achievement. “It’d be awesome. You definitely join a rare club of guys. I think [Kyle] Korver and Steve Kerr, and then maybe Tim Legler are the only people that have ever done it. [A few other players—Detlef Schrempf, Jason Kapono, and Jon Sundvold—have managed the feat.] So yeah, that would be incredible. But two years ago I led the NBA in three-point shooting percentage and I got a trophy from the NBA. I don’t even have it. I don’t even know where the hell that thing is.”
