Kevin Durant

On Thursday night, with the Golden State Warriors up big, Kevin Durant was pulled from the game by head coach Steve Kerr having scored just 18 points. And just like that, Durant’s streak of consecutive 20-point outings was over. It had been 72 games since Durant last failed to clear this 20-point plateau, tying him [...]

No matter what might be said, or written, or assumed, Kevin Durant has a soft spot for Russell Westbrook. The new Golden State Warriors forward sat down with the Bay Area News Group’s Anthony Slater to discuss the state of his relationship with his former Oklahoma City Thunder teammate. Durant was honest, sometimes brutally so, [...]

No one of sound mind expected the Golden State Warriors to crumble against the San Antonio Spurs on opening night, at home, to the tune of a 29-point loss. Yes, this team is still trying to incorporate a fourth All-NBA talent onto its roster and into its schemes. But the likes of Stephen Curry, Kevin [...]

This Kevin Durant versus Russell Westbrook thing isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. And we’re happy about that because we’re here for all of it.

Kevin Durant is happy that he isn’t joining a Golden State Warriors team that’s working off two consecutive titles. Why?

Kevin Durant’s departure from OKC is old news now, but the story itself will forever be intriguing.

Less than a week after a victorious stint at the Rio Olympics where TEAM USA beat Serbia 96-66 to win a gold medal, Kevin Durant and DeAndre Jordan flew to Mykonos for a little R&R.

Kevin Durant needed Team USA. He needed the time in Rio, at the Olympics, away from the NBA offseason chaos he left behind. He needed to get away from his decision to join the Golden State Warriors, the one he still stands by and is excited about but can’t quite escape. He needed that gold [...]

Now I love Kevin Durant as much as the next person, but KD’s choice to sign with the defending Western Conference Champion Golden State Warriors and leave OKC got me wondering. When I open my internet browser, turn on the T.V., or listen to the radio, all I hear are journalists like Stephen A. Smith [...]
