Reviews
"Kevin Durant is one of sports' most complicated superstars, and Marcus Thompson chronicles his life expertly. Marcus has a gift for insight into people, in a way that might be sui generis among writers. If you want to read about how NBA players tick, you read his work." --Ethan Strauss, The Athletic, "If you are going to listen to what any media person has to say about the Warriors, especially regarding the rise of Steph Curry to superstar status, start with Marcus Thompson. Since I was drafted by the Warriors, no writer has been more plugged in." --Draymond Green, "Marcus Thompson connects from deep with this intimate dive into the life and career of Kevin Durant in delivering an insider's perspective, provoking analysis, and an expert's balance. Thompson doesn't take a snapshot. He paints a complex portrait and captures all the multitudes of a dynamic athlete trying to carve his legacy. The dean of all things Warriors delivers yet again." --Jonathan Abrams, New York Times bestselling author of All the Pieces Matter and Boys Among Men, Praise for Golden: "A revolutionary player like Curry--whose three-point shooting altered basketball in a way similar to Babe Ruth changing baseball with the home run--deserves an in-the-moment book. And in the same way so many of Curry's outlandish shots nestle softly into the net, so Thompson's engaging and knowing biography successfully finds the mark." -- The Washington Post

Synopsis
Golden State Warriors insider and bestselling author Marcus Thompson delivers the definitive biography of one of the most extraordinary basketball players in NBA history--Kevin Durant. The NBA has never seen a player quite like Kevin Durant. Larry Bird wasn't as quick, Magic Johnson didn't have such a range, and Michael Jordan wasn't seven feet tall. Durant handles the ball like Allen Iverson, shoots like Dirk Nowitzki, and has the scoring instincts of Kobe Bryant. He does it in a body that's about as big as Hakeem Olajuwon. But ultimately, Kevin Durant is like no one but himself. After an incredible first season with Golden State, Kevin Durant earned the coveted NBA Finals MVP award: he was the Warriors' top scorer in every game of the 2017 Finals, helping the team snatch the title from LeBron James and the defending champion Cleveland Cavaliers. As a sports columnist for The Athletic Bay Area, and longtime beat reporter covering the Golden State Warriors, Marcus Thompson is perfectly positioned to trace Durant's inspirational journey. KD follows Durant's underdog story from his childhood spent in poverty outside DC; to his rise playing on AAU teams with future NBA players; to becoming a star and hometown hero for the Oklahoma Thunder; to his controversial decision to play for the NBA rival Golden State Warriors; to his growth from prodigy into a man, in the first true inside account of this superstar player. KD is a powerful, moving biography of a modern-day legend and an essential read for all sports fans--or anyone who wants to know: what's it like to shoot for greatness?
