Kevin Durant wore a new uniform, facing a team of strangers wearing his old uniform.
Durant played against the Thunder in his three seasons with the Warriors, but Sunday was his first game against the Thunder as a Net. And it was the first time Durant played a Thunder team that featured none of his former teammates.
That fact was cemented in the offseason when the Thunder traded Steven Adams and moved on from Andre Roberson — both of whom played with Durant in Oklahoma City.
Thunder forward Darius Bazley defended Durant on Sunday night. Bazley was 16 years old when Durant signed with Golden State in the summer of 2016.
