Fresh off an epic playoff run in which he staked his claim as the best player in the world, Nets superstar Kevin Durant is expected to commit to playing for Team USA for the upcoming Tokyo Olympics this summer.
Durant has already won gold with the team in the 2012 London Olympics and the 2016 Brazil Olympics. If he manages to win gold again this year, this will make it his third Gold medal of his career.
Durant averaged 34.3 PPG, 9.3 RPG and 4.4 APG in the playoffs on 51 percent shooting from the field, his highest scoring totals in the postseason ever.
