Unsung hero of the Golden State Warriors dynasty whose selfless play, rebounding and basketball IQ earned him four NBA Championships.
Kevon Looney was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on 6 February 1996. A classic role player who epitomises the concept of winning through selflessness, Looney has been a crucial contributor to all four of the Golden State Warriors' NBA championships in 2015, 2017, 2018 and 2022. A physical, intelligent center and power forward who excels at rebounding, setting screens and making smart, unselfish decisions with the ball, Looney has never been a scorer or headline grabber. Instead, he provides the physical and positional foundation that allows the Warriors' star players to flourish. He was selected 30th in the 2015 NBA Draft and has spent his entire career with Golden State. His availability and dependability — showing up night after night and making the right play — have made him one of the dynasty's unsung heroes.
