Kevin Durant Set for Returns to Phoenix and Oklahoma City with Rockets

Kevin Durant, recently traded to the Houston Rockets, is slated to revisit both Phoenix and Oklahoma City during the upcoming 2025-26 NBA season. He will be present for the Thunder's championship ring ceremony on opening night, October 21, and make his first return to Phoenix on November 24, a game scheduled to air on NBC. Durant's move to Houston came after the Rockets swapped Jalen Green for him, and he will lead his new team in a Western Conference Finals rematch against the Warriors on November 26, a series that went seven games last year.
