per CBS:
Less than 24 hours after he agreed to play next season for the Brooklyn Nets, Golden State Warriors co-chairman and CEO Joe Lacob announced Monday that the team would retire departing superstar Kevin Durant’s No. 35 jersey.
Lacob said the Warriors wanted to “thank KD for all of his contributions, for being an integral part to one of the most prolific runs in NBA history.”
“Three years ago, we were thrilled with the arrival of Kevin Durant, a transformative NBA player and one of the best to ever play the game,” the Warriors CEO said in a prepared statement. “He provided our fans and franchise with numerous highlights during his stay here—two NBA championships, two NBA Finals MVPs, three trips to the Finals, unparalleled efficiency—and carried himself with class and dignity both on and off the court.”
Lacob added that “As long as I am Co-Chairman of this team, no player will ever wear #35 for the Warriors again.”
