Oklahoma City Thunder star Kevin Durant spent one season at college before jumping to the pros, and he became the first freshman to win the Naismith College Player of the Year award after scoring nearly 26 points per game at Texas.
During a Q&A session on Tuesday, Durant revealed that he almost ended up at Duke or Kentucky.

Durant visited UConn and North Carolina, but committed to Texas before his senior season of high school.
