Beautiful fans of Oklahoma City, I canโt say enough about you guys. All the support you give our team. The home-court advantage we have is the best Iโve ever seen. We disappoint you sometimes, but we try our best every single night to win for you guys. And we want to win a championship for you guys.
Kevin DurantI've learned that it's harder to try to put on this goody two-shoes persona when that's not me.
Kevin DurantThis was an extremely difficult decision as I take great pride in representing our country. I know that I owe it to my USA Basketball teammates to be totally invested in the experience. After going through training camp with USAB, I realized I could not fulfill my responsibilities to the team from both a time and energy standpoint. I need to take a step back and take some time away, both mentally and physically in order to prepare for the upcoming NBA season. I will be rooting for USAB and look forward to future opportunities with them.
