The small municipality just east of Washington D.C. that raised Kevin Wayne Durant — the small forward who would grow to 6'10\" with the ball-handling of a guard and the shooting touch of the most dangerous scorer in NBA history. The wiry kid who played basketball on the courts of the D.C. suburbs, spent time at Montrose Christian School and Oak Hill Academy, and then chose Rick Barnes' University of Texas Longhorns in Austin for a single season that changed college basketball's recruiting calculus forever. 🏀\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2006-07. Austin, Texas. The Frank Erwin Center. Kevin Durant's one season as a Texas Longhorn in the Big 12 Conference. 25.8 points per game. The first freshman in NCAA history to win the Naismith College Player of the Year award. The consensus National Player of the Year from a player who had not yet played a professional game. And then the 2007 NBA Draft — June 28, 2007 — Portland selecting Greg Oden first overall, and Seattle SuperSonics making Kevin Durant the second pick. The beginning of an NBA story that would span Seattle, Oklahoma City, Oakland, Brooklyn, and Phoenix across nearly two decades. ⭐\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is also a piece of basketball card history. The 2007-08 Fleer set was among the last NBA-licensed products produced under the Fleer brand before Upper Deck acquired the Fleer assets and the exclusive NBA card license consolidated. Fleer — the brand that had been producing baseball cards since 1923 and basketball cards for decades — issued its final NBA cards in the 2007-08 season. Kevin Durant's Fleer Rookie Sensations insert from that set is therefore not only a rookie card of one of the greatest scorers in NBA history but also a piece of basketball card history from the final chapter of one of the hobby's most storied brands. ⚡\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOklahoma City. The Thunder. The small-market franchise that moved from Seattle and built around Durant and Russell Westbrook through years of Western Conference playoff runs, a 2012 NBA Finals appearance against LeBron James and the Miami Heat, and four consecutive DPOY seasons from Durant's scoring companion and rival. And then July 4, 2016 — Kevin Durant signing with the Golden State Warriors. The decision that produced back-to-back NBA championships in 2017 and 2018, back-to-back Finals MVP awards, and the most debated offseason move in professional sports history. 🏆\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the Kevin Durant 2007-08 Fleer Rookie Sensations #RS-2 Rookie RC basketball card graded PSA 10 Gem Mint.
