In 2018, late Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant made history by becoming
the first professional athlete to win an Academy Award with his production,
"Dear Basketball," which took home Best Animated Short Film. During Sunday's
ceremony, Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant and Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley
joined Bryant in the pantheon of Oscar winners when "Two Distant Strangers"
won the Academy Award in the Short Film (Live Action) category.
在2018年，已故湖人队传奇球星Kobe Bryant 以《亲爱的篮球》创造历史，成为第一位赢
得奥斯卡奖的职业球员（赢得“最佳动画短片”）。而在这个星期天（美国时间）的颁奖
典礼中，由篮网队前锋Kevin Durant 及爵士队后卫 Mike Conley 参与的《遥远的陌生人
》也成了最新的奥斯卡奖得奖者（赢得“最佳实景短片”）。
Both Durant and Conley served as executive producers on the film, currently
available to stream on Netflix, in which the protagonist, played by rapper
and actor Joey Bada$$, finds himself in a time loop where he is repeatedly
re-living a deadly run-in with a police officer.
Durant 及 Conley 都是该短片的监制，目前在网飞有上架，讲述由饶舌歌手兼演员 Joey
Bada$$ 饰演的主角发现自己身处在一个不断重复著与一位警官之致命冲突瞬间的时间轮
回的故事。

Writer and director Travon Free has spoken about how much the involvement of
Durant and Conley led to the film's success and recognition, noting that both
NBA All-Stars were much more than a source of funding. Durant's business
manager Rich Kleiman and mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs also served as executive
producers.
编剧兼导演 Travon Free 在谈到 Durant 与 Conley 在制作上的参与如何让该短片得到
成功与认可时，表示这两位全明星球员不仅仅在资金上有所投入。Durant 的商务经理
Rich Kleiman 及大亨 Sean Combs 也是该片的联合监制。
"Guys in the locker room were giving me grief about it the other day, just
like, 'You might win an Oscar before you win a championship' " Conley said in
an interview with CBS Los Angeles before the Oscars. "I was like, hey if I
could win both, that'd be great, but obviously an Oscar was not something I
thought I'd ever be a part of."
Conley 曾在奥斯卡颁奖典礼前，在 CBS 洛杉矶站的一场专访中表示：
“几天之前，在休息室的队友们都在私语，像是‘你可能在赢得总冠军之前就赢得奥斯卡
　奖’的话都有。不过对我而言，如能同时获得这两个奖项，那就太好了，但是很显然的
　，奥斯卡奖不像是我预料中的一部分。”
