Kevin Durant Discusses His Status Among NBA Icons, Future with Rockets, More in Video

Kevin Durant has firmly established himself among the greatest players in NBA history, and the Houston Rockets star recently gave his take on where he sits on the NBA's list of players.

On Unguarded, Durant said he believes he's "at the top," but gave a nuanced answer about what he considers the top to be.

"At the top. I just look at it like I can relate to the Michael Jordans, to Kobes, LeBrons, Wilts," Durant said (1:20:40 mark). "I can talk deeply about the game of basketball with all of them. Larry Bird. I'm at that table. I'm not saying I'm better or they're better... I feel like I've mastered the game. That should be the only goal for every player."

Durant delved into some other topics on the show, including his future with the Rockets. He agreed that Houston is the "last stop" of his career, but noted that things can always change.

Durant, 37, is enjoying another solid season, putting up 24.8 points, 4.6 and 4.0 assists per game. The Rockets are likewise having a good year so far, sitting in fifth place in the West at 16-7.
