Kevin Durant hears ‘Come to Boston’ chant from Celtics fans (Video)
Between now and the end of the season, seemingly half of the NBA will be linked to free agent-to-be Kevin Durant. We’ve already heard the Lakers, Wizards, and Warriors come up in rumors. Next up, the Celtics.
According to a report, Danny Ainge has long been an admirer of Durant and could make a push for him this summer. Perhaps conveniently, the Thunder were in Boston on Wednesday to face the Celtics.
During the game, fans at TD Garden made sure to let Durant know where he should be playing his home games next season. While he was at the free throw line, a chant of “Come to Boston” broke out.

Even if KD says he didn’t hear it, you can’t blame the fans for trying, right? Like Kevin Garnett said, anything is possible.
