Yet, the Cook-Curry dynamic has become unique. Curry remains the Warriors’ franchise player. As Durant also noted, “Point guards always come together.” “They’re always talking and trying to figure out different ways to gain an advantage out there,” Durant said. “Steph is the best at that with figuring out ways to be effective. Quinn is watching at all times and watching how he runs his offense through film. But he adds his different flair to it. Steph is so good at pulling people aside and letting him know what he sees as well and small tricks he used to become a great player in this league. Small guys have to stick together.”

The Most Influential People of 2018. Kevin Durant. From committing $10 million to the College Track program to help disadvantaged kids receive higher education to building and renovating basketball courts around the world so at-risk youth have a safe place to learn and play, KD is giving those growing up in tough situations, like he did, a path to success. His generosity knows no bounds. As an entrepreneur, KD brings the same relentless work ethic and pursuit of excellence that he has on the court, focusing on companies and products that are making lives better. Above all, he has ridden the ups and downs of following his heart, making a hard choice and taking control of his own career—and has emerged wiser, happier, with his head held high. He’s a role model for us all.
