Some basketball Jones

I remember reading a story about Kevin Durant once.

Someone asked him, ‘What do you like to do for fun?’

KD’s answer came back quicker than one of his crossovers, ‘I play basketball.’

If that doesn’t make you miss Durant and the rest of your favorite Thunderers then I don’t know what will.

With the NBA lockout ongoing and not appearing like it will reach an end within the next few months, OKC fans might be feeling a pain of longing for their favorite basketball stars.

But have no fear… Kevin Durant and James Harden will be playing basketball again soon and you can watch it… for free!

Kevin Durant, who has been playing for the Goodman league, a DC basketball pro am league, will take on the Drew league, an LA pro am league which features fellow Thunder teammate James Harden.

The game is set for Aug. 20 in DC at Georgetown University.

The rosters are filled with a whose who of NBA talent:

Durant will be teamed up with John Wall (Wizards), Ty Lawson (Nuggets), Gary Neal (Spurs), Tyreke Evans (Kings), Michael Beasley (Timberwolves), DeMarcus Cousins (Kings), Josh Selby (Grizzlies), Sam Young (Grizzlies), Donte Green(Kings), Hugh “Baby Shaq” Jones (AND1 Tour), Emanuel “Duce” Jones and Warren “D-Nice” Jefferson
