Durant, who’s won two NBA Championships with the Golden State Warriors since his debut in 2007, arrived in Brooklyn in 2007.

With the Nets, his jersey number is seven. Now, to celebrate the Washington-born 12-time NBA All-Star, the 2019 World Championship team delivered a special jersey for the legend.

Kevin Durant receives a special gift from a special Nationals member:

Washington National Mascot, Screech, in a video uploaded by the Nationals’ official handle, meets the NBA star, and with an excited posterior, hands over a Washington Nationals jersey to Durant.

The jersey displayed Durant’s name and jersey number seven. The caption of the tweet said, “KD you like a bacon and egg sandwich..you look good”

 

A few days back, during Aaron Judge’s free agency, Kevin Durant received a question about the biggest MLB free agent in the offseason. However, his reply shunned everyone. He said, “‘I’m a Nationals fan. I really don’t care about Aaron Judge at all.”

Notably, Aaron Judge signed a $360 million contract with the New York Yankees for a nine-year contract after they successfully beat the Giants in a bidding war.

How did the Washington Nationals fare in 2022?

The Nationals’ regular season performance in the previous two years has been questionable, especially after their World Series victory in 2019.

In 2019, they won their first World Championship Ring, after making consistent appearances in the postseason since 2012, when they broke their three-decade-long absence from the postseason.
