There are a few players in the NBA who are simply beloved among the NBA community regardless of how they play in the league.
Many may name top-notch superstars, such as Stephen Curry, who perfectly fits this category.
But there is one player who arguably has zero haters in the league, and it’s none other than the Phoenix Suns forward Bol Bol.
Even before joining the Suns, Bol had an incredible fanbase in the league and it wasn’t due to his basketball skills.
Sure, Bol is a talented player, but there is something about him that makes him a beloved player in the NBA.
Speaking of which, Phoenix Suns superstar Kevin Durant recently shared his thoughts on Bol Bol while revealing that he’s “rooting” for him, via Legion Hoops on Twitter.

Durant didn’t hide his positive attitude towards Bol, as he mentioned he loves everything about the 24-year-old.
On top of that, the two-time NBA champion also stated that everyone simply loves Bol, and he is undoubtedly rooting for the former 44th overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft.
So far, in his career, Bol may have gained a lot of love from the fans, but his NBA career is far from great.
Considering he is 7-foot-3, many expect him to become an elite player in the league.
But to be honest, Bol has seemingly settled in to a supporting player role in his career.
He has played 14 games for the Suns this season, averaging 3.8 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 0.6 assists per game for the team.
