It was a rough first half for Kevin Durant in his return to the floor along with his home debut with the team. He scored 3 points on 1-8 shooting and looked a little rusty with his mid-range shot.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!In the beginning of the second quarter, Kevin Durant seemed frustrated and shook his head repeatedly while going to the sideline near Monty Williams. Williams saw it and offered words of encouragement to the future Hall-of-Famer.

Williams has a knack for moments like this going back to his a couple seasons ago when he had talk with Deandre Ayton during a timeout in the NBA playoffs.

With the second half starting up let’s see if Durant can turn his fortune around a little bit.
