Phoenix Suns superstar Kevin Durant posted a photo of himself with Bob Myers as a sign of respect after the Golden State Warriors general manager announced his decision to step down.
Myers joined the Warriors front office in 2011 and the 48-year-old - who grew up in the Bay Area as a fan of the team - is referred to as t he architect behind the Warriors dynasty, which spanned four championships and six NBA Finals appearances between 2015 and 2022. Myers was named NBA Executive of the Year in both 2015 and 2017.
Myers developed strong working relationships with the pillars of the Warriors dynasty, namely Steph Curry, Draymond Green, Klay Thompson and head coach Steve Kerr. He was also heavily involved in the acquisition of Durant after the 2014 MVP left the Oklahoma City Thunder for free agency in 2016, with his signing serving as the catalyst for two championships.
