Kevin Durant is regarded as one of the most skilled basketball players to ever play in the NBA. The Slim Reaper is a nightmare for his opponents on a regular basis and can turn the flow of the game around in minutes.
Over the years, KD has only gotten better and dropped some of the most memorable performances in NBA history. But one of the best performances from the 2x NBA champion didn’t even come on the NBA court.
Yes, we are talking about the time when KD appeared at Rucker Park back in 2011. At the time, Durant was playing for the Oklahoma City Thunder and was already on a path to becoming one of the best players in the world.
Speaking of Durant’s sensational night at Rucker Park. He lit the court on fire with his insane scoring prowess. By the end of the night, Durant had ended up with 66 points to his name.
At the age of 22, it was insane to see him scoring, and it made fans remember when Kobe Bryant pulled up to Rucker Park at the age of 24. One might think there is no way that someone could downplay KD’s Rucker Park performance. But that’s not true at all.
An NBA fan on Twitter decided to take a shot at Kevin Durant’s performance at Rucker Park in 2011.

In recent days, Durant has been targeted a lot by fans on social media platforms such as Twitter. But KD is not someone who backs down when a fan calls him out. As expected, he roasted the fan in his own unique way.

KD’s comeback was worth it, as when he played at the Rucker Park, he was simply unstoppable. No matter what the opposing team threw at him, he had a befitting reply for each.
Anyway, as of now, Durant’s future with the Brooklyn Nets is the biggest discussion in the league. Currently, the Boston Celtics have emerged as dark horse contenders to land KD. But will they succeed in doing so? We will find out very soon.
