Enjoying his offseason, 14x All-Star Kevin Durant spent his Saturday night watching Phoenix Mercury basketball courtside at Footprint Center.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!The Mercury, after losing their season opener, entered Saturday on a three-game winning streak. Unfortunately, the now 2-2 Dallas Wings proved too much for Phoenix to handle, snapping the Mercury’s win streak with Durant in attendance.

Since being traded to Phoenix in the spring of 2023, Durant has consistently shown support for local sports. He has often been seen at Diamondbacks games, sporting a Corbin Carroll jersey on multiple occasions.
While attending the Mercury game on Saturday, Durant switched up his usual Diamondbacks hat for an Oakland A’s cap, showcasing his lasting ties to the Bay Area from his three seasons with the Warriors.
After the game, Durant made sure to show some love to several Mercury stars, including legend Diana Taurasi and current WNBA scoring leader Kahleah Cooper.
