Via Durant’s Twitter feed:

Exstension for 5 more years wit the #thunder….God Is Great, me and my family came a long way…I love yall man forreal, this a blessing!

Durant’s humility and genuine love for basketball is refreshing in a time when certain players (who will remain nameless) are milking their position for all that it’s worth.

Congratulations to Durant and the Thunder. OKC is lucky to have this kid.
