Durant's Move That Changed the Game | Golden State Warriors News
Description
Kevin Durant’s 2016 exit from the Oklahoma City Thunder sent shockwaves through the NBA, as he joined the Golden State Warriors — the team that just beat them in the playoffs. The move ended Thunder’s dynasty dreams and launched Durant into a new chapter with Steph Curry, where he won two titles and two Finals MVPs. While the recruiting pitch in The Hamptons gets all the headlines, the raw reactions from Thunder players like Anthony Morrow — who called Durant “f this n” before quickly adding “he’s still my brother” — reveal the emotional toll. Westbrook, meanwhile, remained unfazed, embodying his relentless drive. It took the Thunder until 2025 to finally reach that championship level again — a testament to Durant’s impact and the void his departure left.
