Surprising News About Kevin Durant

Phoenix Suns superstar Kevin Durant is one of the most notable athletes in the world.

The 2014 NBA MVP is in his 16th season in the league and averaged an incredible 29.1 points, 6.7 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.4 blocks per contest while shooting 56.0% from the field and 40.4% from the three-point range during the regular season.  

Recently, the popular video game Call of Duty announced that the 13-time All-Star would be featured in the game. 

Via Call of Duty: "Easy Money Sniper is drafted to Call of Duty for his rookie season 🏀

Kevin Durant will be available in a special, limited-time Store Bundle to be released during Season 03 Reloaded."

Durant's teammate Devin Booker was asked about the news and joked that he was "jealous" (via Gerald Bourguet of PHNX Sports). 

“I’m jealous.”

I asked Devin Booker if he had put in a word with Kevin Durant about showing up in Call Of Duty.

“I talk about it every day, he didn’t even bring it up to me! I hit him this morning like, ‘Come on, bro, you didn’t even let me know?’” pic.twitter.com/zD9g009MOA

The Suns are currently in the middle of a second-round series with Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets.   

They lost the first two games in Denver but will have an excellent chance to tie up the series with Games 3 and 4 on their home floor in Phoenix on Friday and Sunday. 

Durant is in his first season with the Suns after getting traded (via the Brooklyn Nets) in February. 

The 34-year-old has also had stints with the Seattle SuperSonics/Oklahoma City Thunder and Golden State Warriors.  

With the Warriors, he won two NBA Championships and made the NBA Finals in all three seasons he was with the franchise. 

The former Texas star will be a first-ballot Hall of Famer one day.
