Kevin Durant delivered against his former team last night as the Phoenix Suns went on to win their fifth-straight game.
The Phoenix Suns defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder 128-118 last night en route to their fifth-straight victory.
However, it wasn’t their play on the court that was the main storyline of this game rather the fan reaction to Kevin Durant’s arrival back to Oklahoma City.
Durant played eight years with the Thunder helping the franchise emerge as a true destination for professional basketball. When Durant eventually decided to leave Oklahoma City and joined the Golden State Warriors following the 2016 season, Thunder fans did not take too well to the news.
Each time Durant returns to Oklahoma City as the visiting opponent, the fans all boo him in unison showing their anger towards their once favorite player.
“I'm still surprised at how many people, why they boo him here,” Monty Williams said. “I don't understand that.”
