Kevin Durant calls OKC his favorite opposing city to play in

When asked which opposing city he likes to play in the most, Kevin Durant gave a surprising answer. The future Hall-of-Famer answered OKC.

In an “NBA on TNT” TikTok video, Durant was asked several questions, but that one likely caught the attention of most Oklahoma City Thunder fans.

The complex relationship between Durant and the Thunder is well-documented. After spending nine years with OKC, Durant left to join the Golden State Warriors in 2016.

Since then, he has only played five games in OKC as an opposing player. In those five, he’s averaged 31.4 points on 50.5% shooting, 7.4 rebounds and 3.6 assists.

The heavy boos Durant endures every time he’s in town likely played a role in his decision to go with OKC as his top answer. It could also be because of a nostalgic effect, as Durant can reminisce about his time with the Thunder all these years later.

Either way, Durant will need to stay patient for his next visit to his favorite opposing city. The Phoenix Suns play one game at OKC this season on March 29.

The last time he played in OKC, controversy arose following the game over whether Thunder fans should still boo Durant seven years after he left.
