Kevin Durant has played in 166 Playoffs games, pouring in points from everywhere on the court on his way to the NBA’s all-time top 10 for Playoffs scoring.
Throughout all of those buckets, performances, and victories, KD has only scored 50 in the Playoffs once — April 26, 2019, in a closeout Game 6 win against the LA Clippers. His 38-point first half set the stage for a career playoff-high.
This week, that signature performance from KD’s time with the Warriors is coming to NBA Top Shot as the first Rare Moment of his Anthology — available in an App Exclusive Pack Drop this Thursday and a series of different Leaderboards!
KD's Moment is the first of three Rare Anthology Moments being released this September – each minted to /299 and celebrating our trilogy of active players (and icons) with open Anthologies today — as Top Shot goes back in time this September and October leading up to the new NBA season.
- September 5-7: Kevin Durant from the 2019 NBA Playoffs
- September 12-14: LeBron James from the 2018 NBA Playoffs
- September 18-20: Steph Curry from the 2015 NBA Playoffs
For the first Rare Anthology Moments from our trilogy of KD, LeBron, and Steph, collectors will have 5 different ways to add these Moments to their collections — with 74 available as prizes and 225 available in Packs!
