Yes, that's right count Kevin Durant as a USA Team Member in 201o. Hmmmm? You said Kevin Durant? As in the Kevin Durant that was drafted behind Greg Oden? The Kevin Durant who is stuck in a terrible market of Oklahoma City, and missed out on an All Star selection? Yup, that Kevin Durant. Pencil him in, here's what Coach K said after their first day of a three day training camp for players attempting to make the senior national team."Everyone who was watching from our group said you could tell that Durant was a little bit on a mission -- and that's good for them to see that; it picks everybody up," Krzyzewski said. "He's that versatility guy, and the other thing is he's a shooter, and with the way we were playing defense for most of the Olympics, with his length, he could be a heck of a defender. So he's really at the head of the list for me."
Wow, high praise right? Apparently Durant's had this ability the whole time, I mean, I did say he's in a crappy market right? Well, let's hope Coach K and the other assistants are right because we could use as much help as possible in retaining our crown as Hoops Nation.
