With fans and players antsy for a return of the NBA season the league and ESPN have hatched out a proposed televised H-O-R-S-E competition. ESPN writer Adrian Wojnarowski broke the news of the plan. Kevin Durant won the event in consecutive seasons while he was still a member of the OKC Thunder.
The challenge took place during All-Star Weekends in 2009 and 2010 in Phoenix and Dallas respectively. In his first win, Durant beat out challengers Joe Johnson and O. J. Mayo. The trophy as some might recall looked like a plastic horse.
