Ranking Kevin Durant's Ten Best Shoes This Season

In this story:
The 2021-22 season felt doomed from the beginning for the Brooklyn Nets. Kyrie Irving missed most of the regular season, James Harden got traded, and Ben Simmons never suited up once.
But the Nets could always count on Kevin Durant. The All-NBA forward averaged 29.9 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 6.4 assists per game. Even better, he looked good doing it.
Nike kept Durant fresh with new colorways of his signature sneaker line. Unfortunately for fans, the best colorways never hit shelves. It was not easy, but below are the top ten kicks worn by Durant during this past season.
