Kevin Durant absolutely loves to compete and play the game of basketball, so it should be no surprise that Durant might stumble upon a game anytime he can.
According to Matt Carney of NewsOK, Durant will embrace a game any chance he gets. Carney says during a recent Friday morning trip to the local YMCA, he was shocked to see Durant and 8 of his friends getting in some early morning pickup games.
I wasn’t expecting anybody else to be there last Friday around lunchtime when I went in to shoot baskets, so you can imagine my surprise to find this guy, casually playing with eight of his friends:
There Kevin Durant was, the morning after dropping 28 points in a late game against the Clippers, playing half-court ball with his buddies (each of them big enough to discomfort somebody sitting next to them on an airplane), talking noise and completely disregarding the “NO DUNKING ALLOWED” sign pasted to the window of the gym. The Y employee at the desk made me promise not to bother him, so I checked out a ball and headed to the other end of the court to practice corner threes and otherwise pretend like one of the two greatest basketball players on the planet wasn’t at the other end performing feats of scoring magic that I normally can’t afford towatch up close.
Durant is all in as well I see.
