Three weeks before his decision he had a dinner with Westbrook and Collison
According to Royce Young of ESPN, a couple of weeks before his decision of joining the Golden State Warriors, Kevin Durant was pretty sure that he was returning to OKC. He had a dinner with Westbrook and Collison and he assured both of them that he was coming back and that he was also on the verge of buying a new house:
"Three weeks ago, Kevin Durant's sitting there at dinner, telling him 'Hey, I'm coming back, man. Don't worry about it,'" ESPN's Royce Young said on a podcast Tuesday. ""Kevin Durant ... was telling people, 'Hey, yeah, I mean I'm coming back.'" Young said on the podcast. "A week before (Durant) sat down in The Hamptons, he was in Oklahoma City ready to make an offer on a multi-million dollar house. Like, the guy was pretty serious about coming back, and then things turned rather quickly for him to leave"
