Seriously it wasn't a lucky shot. Luck is only probability taken personally. It does require skill because not only did he have to get it up over great defense and at the proper angle, but he had to jump at the proper angle as well, while you still factor in all of the different elements of physics involved.
Everything is about math. When it left his hands the % was shot was going in was already set. He wound up on the right side of it that time. If you guess Durant makes that shot how many times out of 10? Even if you say 1 there is still that 10% chance. Everything Durant did though improved the odds of the shot going in.
I'd like to see that ESPN Sports Science break this shot down TBH

It was a pretty damn lucky shot. As Marion said and you can see in the photo, he couldn't really see the basket at all.
