Yesterday, Colin drew an intense reaction when he predicted that Kevin Durant won’t be in Oakland much longer because he’s the ultimate mobile millennial superstar.

Today, NBA insider Chris Mannix from The Vertical stopped by the show and agreed with Colin that Durant is likely to bolt form the Bay when he becomes eligible for free agency in 2019, but added a surprising twist when discussing KD’s possible next destination.
With 3 titles at 30, and his legacy secure, Mannix thinks KD could take a hard look at returning to OKC and trying to win a title with Russell Westbrook to quiet critics that label him a ring chaser.
LeBron returned to Cleveland. Why can’t KD return to OKC? Watch Mannix explain why the idea isn’t as crazy as it sounds.
