Durants Blunt Response to Oklahoma Questions Ahead of Season Opener

Forward of the Houston Rockets, **Kevin Durant**, gave a blunt response when asked about his former team, the Oklahoma City Thunder, against whom the Rockets will play their opening game of the 2025/2026 NBA season.

**— As you return to Oklahoma, are there any familiar faces, staff, or anyone you’d like to see when you step onto the court?**

— No.

Durant made this statement following a Rockets practice.

It’s worth noting that Durant was selected by the Seattle SuperSonics as the second overall pick in the 2007 NBA Draft. The team relocated to Oklahoma the following year. He played for the Thunder from 2008 to 2016 before joining the Golden State Warriors. Durant secured his two championship titles while playing with the Warriors.
