Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant seems just as excited as every NBA fan for "The Redeem Team" documentary produced by LeBron James and Dwyane Wade. The documentary is based on the 2008 USA men's basketball team.
Here's what Durant wrote on Twitter:
"Needed it yesterday. Can’t wait to lock in."
The Americans failed to extend their streak to four gold medal wins at the Olympics in 2004, finishing third. They also failed to win gold at the 2006 FIBA World Championship. This led to The Redeem Team's formation, similar to the idea of "The Dream Team," formed back in 1992.
The roster was headlined by the late Kobe Bryant, who was also the team's captain, LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Paul, Chris Bosh, Jason Kidd, Carmelo Anthony and Dwight Howard. Team USA went unbeaten throughout the tournament, winning all five games in the group stage.
The documentary will premiere on Netflix on October 7, 2022.
Fans are excited to see how the success of a star-studded team like "The Redeem Team" came to fruition, and learn about the relationship the stars shared.
Kevin Durant's international career has been phenomenal as well
Kevin Durant has a tremendous appreciation for fellow NBA legends. His international career, beginning with the 2010 FIBA World Cup, has been phenomenal as well. Durant was vital to the national team's success in the 2012, 2016 and 2020 Olympics.
Kevin Durant led the scoring charts in all four tournaments. He averages 20.6 points in 31 appearances for the national team. Durant is also the leading scorer in USA Men's basketball Olympic history with 435 points. The Brooklyn Nets superstar deserves a documentary of his own on his exploits at the international level.
Kevin Durant's overall career has been quite intriguing to follow as well. He has been misunderstood on several occasions and finds himself in the middle of a quagmire that has seen him being criticized heavily.
He has reportedly requested a trade out of the Brooklyn Nets, despite signing a four-year extension, which kicks in this season, last summer. Both analysts and fans are questioning his legacy and leadership abilities.
Durant has headlined the offseason so far, and he will continue to remain in the limelight until his transfer saga comes to an end.
Guess the Lakers players!
