37-year-old Durant Admits: Basketball is a Young Man's Game

Houston forward Kevin Durant has addressed the possibility of retiring from professional basketball.

“I’m next to call it quits. Next, yeah. Do you feel that? Basketball is a young man’s game. And while I’m still confident I can play, I constantly hear: ‘You’re 38,’ ‘You’re 39,’ ‘You’re too old.’ So, yes, I understand all of that. But I’ve given this sport everything I’ve ever had, and I accept whatever comes next. I’ll continue to give my all to basketball until I simply can’t play anymore,” the 37-year-old Durant stated on the Boardroom YouTube channel.

Durant is a two-time NBA champion and has been named Finals MVP twice. In 2014, Durant earned the regular season MVP award.
