Old, strangely prescient Kevin Durant tweet about Lakers racks up over 22,000 retweets

You'd be forgiven if, at first glance, you thought Kevin Durant tweeted about LeBron James joining the Lakers on Sunday night. But a look at the timestamp of his tweet reveals the Warriors star was eight years early on the blockbuster signing.

"Everybody in the world is a lakers fan...mannnn just last week yall was cleveland fans!!!" Durant tweeted in May 2009. "stick with one team, thank you..KDEEZY."

An eagle-eyed Twitter user must have surfaced the tweet on Sunday night, shortly after James announced he was signing a four-year deal with the Lakers, because it's gone super viral.
