Kevin Durant is a SBP, or superstar basketball player, looking for another SBP for a possible on-court bromance. 

While spending the summer playing alongside Toronto Raptors teammates Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan for Team USA, Durant realized his #bromancegoals. According to the Toronto Star in an article published Monday, KD sent a text message in August to former Oklahoma City Thunder assistant coach, Rex Kalamian, who currently works for the Raptors organization, expressing his desire to have a relationship similar to the one shared by Lowry and DeRozan. “Your two guys are the best. I’m jealous of their relationship, the way they get along with each other and the way they play together. The way they enjoy each other, it’s great.” Kalamian said of the text message, “I think it’s kind of what he wants. He wants that bond with someone...and I think he’s going to find that." 

“Early on in OKC, we had that," Kalamian said, probably hinting at a bromance between Durant and Russell Westbrook. Of course, we know how that story goes.

Now, as a member of the Golden State Warriors, KD is single and ready to mingle with the likes of Draymond Green, Steph Curry, and Klay Thompson. Even though everyone seems to be already pinning Steph and Durant together, our money is on Draymond. Did you not see them dancing their troubles away at the Travis Scott concert in Las Vegas last week? That's the type of stuff that a solid bromance is made of.
