Kevin Durant is widely considered one of the greatest small forwards of all time. But who else does he think belongs in the conversation?
On Friday, sports media personality Chris Henderson asked KD to name “Mount Rushmore” small forwards, including himself.
Durant named LeBron James, Kawhi Leonard and Larry Bird in his top four.

Some fans questioned Durant’s decision to put Leonard in the greatest conversation ever.
“Clyde’s cute [Drexler] and Scotty [Pippen] ???? What about that match,” wrote one fan.
“It’s easier with Scottie Pippen or James Worthy than Kawhi,” added another.
“Dr. J over Kawai, then I love it,” said another.
Durant is arguably the all-time scoring small forward. He has four career scoring titles, including his third straight from 2009 to 2012. He is currently averaging 30.8 points per game through 12 games with the Nets this season.
Fresh off Wednesday’s 29-point performance, Durant and the Nets face the Los Angeles Clippers tomorrow afternoon.
