After it was reported that the defending NBA champion Oklahoma City Thunder will open the 2025-26 season against the Houston Rockets and star forward Kevin Durant, fans were curious about how he'd feel about watching his former franchise hang a championship banner.

The contract situation could be a bit of an issue, but according to a recent report from NBC Sports, it doesn't sound like it will be. According to NBC, some believe that Durant could take a two-year, $100 million deal, which would be below the max he can take, but still a decent contract.
