OKLAHOMA CITY — Carmelo Anthony said he wouldn’t be surprised if 2016 free agent Kevin Durant stuck it out long-term in Oklahoma City.
Conveniently, Durant was inducted into the Oklahoma Sports Hall of Fame on Thursday night in Tulsa. Perhaps in an indication he plans to stay with the Thunder, Durant closed his acceptance speech by saying, “Hopefully we’ll be here next year for Russell Westbrook’s induction.’’
Anthony was asked Friday morning whether his buddy Durant enjoys Oklahoma City.
“C’mon, man, he just got into the Hall of Fame,’’ Anthony said at shootaround at Chesapeake Arena.
