Suns F Kevin Durant Doesn't Want to Retire Anytime Soon

In this story:
Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant is considered to be one of the greatest players of all time.
His ability to score at will - from anywhere on the floor - has made him nearly unstoppable since entering the league with the Seattle Supersonics in 2007.
Durant's played with franchises in the Oklahoma City Thunder, Golden State Warriors, Brooklyn Nets and now Phoenix Suns. He's accomplished accolades such as winning the NBA Finals twice and securing the league's MVP award among a laundry list of items that will some day see him go in the Basketball Hall of Fame.
Yet there's still plenty of time before that happens, at least in the eyes of Durant.
In an interview with The Ringer's Logan Murdock, Durant says he wants to keep playing until he can't anymore.
“I want to play until I can’t no more, man,” he says. “A title is incredible, but what it’s going to mean to me as an individual? I want to win a title for a city, for my teammates, for the organization. Is it going to get me more notoriety, more attention, a ring? It’s not really about me. That’s how I look at championships. So I want to do this together. I’m looking forward to going on the journey with these guys.”
That's certainly a good sign for Suns fans, as Durant (34-years-old) is under contract with Phoenix through the 2025-26 season.
For now, the Suns hope Durant can help propel them to a franchise-first NBA Finals title.
The first step in the process can happen tonight, should the Suns be able to close out the Los Angeles Clippers in Game 5 of their first-round series.
