“I just want to make it through 35.”
Kevin Durant when @CamCox12 asked him if he could see himself playing another 10 years as he had answered a previous question about playing against LeBron James.
“Ten years, another 10 years would be crazy.”
Durant is 35 years old. #Suns pic.twitter.com/Elp9JR1UbW4:48 PM
