“Swagger”: Kevin Durant has scripted a series about his early basketball days. Was he already used to switching teams?

Some still blame him for "always" switching teams, others adore him. To be honest, it doesn't matter, because the lanky number 7 of the Brooklyn Nets is an exceptional player, one of the best to ever play this game.

KD has an unbelievable track record: two time NBA champion, three Olympic gold medals, one world champion medal, one MVP trophy and two Finals MVP. He is at point where he does not have much to prove on the court. So, he decided to dive a little deeper into the movie industry. He therefore executively produced a basketball-themed scripted series inspired by his early career.

The scripted drama has been created by KD, Reggie Rock Bythewood and Brian Grazer, and produced by Thirty Five Ventures, Imagine Television Studios, CBS and Undisputed Cinema.
