Durant is averaging 34.3 points for the Warriors in eight playoff games. The former MVP is shooting 52.7 percent from the field, 40.7 percent from beyond the arc and 90.5 percent from the free-throw line.

The Warriors are currently up 2-0 against the Houston Rockets in the second round. With Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James not playing in the playoffs, Durant has a bigger avenue to show everyone he's the best player in the game.

The Warriors are looking to three-peat. They have won the last two championships and three rings in four years. Durant is trying to capture his third-straight Finals MVP since joining the Dubs back in the summer of 2016. Whether you like him or not, there's no denying that Durant is one of the most gifted offensive players in NBA history.

Game 3 between the Rockets and Warriors is on Saturday in Houston. Both teams are getting three days off in between games.
