There’s not a lot for NBA fans to discuss in the part of the offseason when the free agency talk has died down and most trades have happened. Of course, the likes of Donovan Mitchell and Kyrie Irving could still be on the move, but talks on those major deals seem to have slowed down.
The main name that most people have eyes on during this period, though, is Kevin Durant. KD requested a trade from the Nets and has since been in the middle of a media storm. He doesn’t care much though, Durant just posted the other day about the work his foundation has been doing during this time.
And now another thing about KD has caught the eye of fans. Durant has been so skinny his entire career that he has been nicknamed the Slim Reaper. But in the latest photos, it looks like he has finally gained some muscle. The pictures of him working out in St. Tropez went viral on Twitter, with many noticing that he is looking quite ripped.

“Historic season approaching.”
“I am not going to front: i didnt think dude lifted weights. He is lowkey looking bigger in those pics.”
“What is he doing with those weights?”
“Dude waited his entire career to add 10 pounds of muscle.”
“That boy done picked up a weight y’all.”
“Hope he goes crazy this season.”
“That’s more muscle than I ever seen on Durant.”
“Oh KD wanna bulk?”
“Why KD looking jacked, bro.”
“Bro I don’t even have an excuse to not gym if even KD is getting ripped.”
KD could be playing for any number of NBA teams starting next season. There doesn’t seem to be a deal he is close to next season. And wherever that is, as soon as the season begins, the drama will be on the back burner. Durant on the court is an unstoppable machine, and with a little extra strength it’s scary to think how much better he could get.
