Durant is from Washington D.C.
The speculation about him returning home began in earnest after LeBron James went home to Cleveland this summer. The Washington Wizards have a good young team and will have cap space in 2016, which makes Durant-to-D.C. at least plausible. In addition, Durant sent Wizards fans into a tizzy in July when he gushed about his hometown and didn't rule out leaving OKC .
For the next two years every single Durant quote and decision will be examined and reexamined for its implications on the theory that he'll return home.
Monday morning we got a perfect example of this. Durant set the NBA world ablaze with a four-wood tweet to an ESPN journalist who asked him about D.C.
A fan tweeted they wanted him to come home like LeBron James and he responded" just wait on it".
