Kevin Durant Says He Could Have Played Pro Football

Kevin Durant is widely regarded for his skills on the basketball court. It is also thought by people like Magic Johnson that he is primed and ready to step up and take over the title of “The Man” in the NBA from LeBron James.

During a recent conversation with the Out Of Office podcast, KD spoke about his options in sports. He decided to pursue pro basketball, but he is very certain that he could have balled with the best of them on the gridiron as well.

“I could play football. I can be a wideout at least. There’s wideouts that’s 6 feet, 170 [pounds]. … All go routes,”

Obviously, basketball was Kevin Durant’s true calling. He’s racked up enough cash and points in the process to prove that he belongs in pro basketball. That won’t stop fans from having some fun trying to picture KD with shoulder pads on instead of sweatbands.
