Kevin Durant is already one of the best players on the planet and can do almost anything on the basketball court, but he's still looking for ways to improve. 

The Golden State Warriors superstar took his game to new heights last season as he claimed his first championship and was also named as the Finals MVP.

His addition to the Warriors roster made them an unstoppable force and they easily avenged their 2016 Finals loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers by dismantling them in five games in June.

At the age of 28, KD is in the prime of his career and is sure to be among the top candidates for the MVP award next year. 

He is one of the best scorers the league has ever seen and is almost unguardable offensively due to his length and athleticism. 

In his first season with the Dubs, Durant also showed that he can do it on the defensive end as he posted a career-high 1.6 blocks per game and became the team's best rim protector.

The eight-time All-Star also notched a career-best 8.3 rebounds per game, all whilst shooting an impressive 53.7 percent from the field. 

There clearly aren't many flaws to his game but the All-NBA small forward believes there is one aspect he can improve on and is drawing inspiration from a fellow player. 

"DeMar DeRozan's probably got the best footwork I've seen in a long, long time," Durant said on the Bill Simmons Podcast. "I've been trying to watch him to see how he does it.

"He's just way more athletic than I am first of all, so his body can move a little different, but his pace is amazing. He's a guy I've been studying lately just because of his footwork. Every time I see him I'm just looking at how his body, his footwork. I think that's where I can get better."

DeRozan is an unconventional shooting guard as he doesn't rely on his jumper to be successful. It's almost rare to see a player at that position not take three-point shots in this current era, but the Toronto Raptors star hardly ventures to the perimeter. 

Instead, he focuses on slashing to the basket and using his size to post up smaller defenders. He's very adept on the block and uses brilliant footwork to get to his spots. 

Despite not being a three-point shooter, DeRozan still averaged a career-high 27.3 points per game last year and it is some compliment that one of the best players in the league is studying his game and looking to incorporate it into his own.
