On premature vacation after the elimination without possible challenge from his Nets, Kevin Durant made a name for himself by surfacing on the side of Monaco this Friday evening. And of course, the occasion was too good not to immortalize the visit with a photo alongside the boss of the Principality…
Kevin Durant seems to surprise, no one can take that away from him. Whether on social networks with some tweets from elsewhere, on the field with his unparalleled talent with the ball in hand, or even by his way of being seen where you don’t expect him, no doubt: you never get bored with KD. The latest example made a lot of noise in France, since the double NBA champion showed up very close to France, near Monaco.
The reason for this visit? A big basketball fan in front of the eternal, Durant took advantage of the boiling match between Monaco and Olympiacos in the Euroleague playoffs to come and encourage his friend Mike James, who passed through Brooklyn last season and is now a member of the Roca Team.

After the match, what did KD do? Did he go and slap a few tickets at the Monte-Carlo casino? Nobody knows. But what we do know is that he crossed paths with His Serene Highness Prince Albert of Monaco!

The Head of State of the Rock obviously had to come and greet his host. But despite his very correct 1m83 under the height gauge, Albert seemed very small alongside Durantula!

In the “unexpected photos” category, we hardly do better. KD has in any case displayed a radiant smile, far from the gray mine displayed during this trying series of playoffs against Boston. Moreover, he did not fail to celebrate with good heart the victory of the Monegasques on the wire (78-77):

Kevin Durant should not regret having crossed the Atlantic. The Nets star leaves with an excellent game seen from the front row, a victory for his friend Mike James, and even a collector’s photo with Albert of Monaco. This is called making your evening profitable!
