The NBA Is About To Change Forever… 😳
The NBA hasn’t expanded in over 20 years. That changes March 24th. 🏀
Seattle is getting the SuperSonics back. Las Vegas is getting its first NBA team. Each franchise could cost $10 BILLION.
But here’s the part nobody is talking about — Kevin Durant was drafted by the SuperSonics in 2007. One year later, the team vanished. Now the Sonics could return in 2028… the same year KD’s contract is up.
The greatest retirement tour in NBA history is RIGHT THERE.
Should KD retire as a SuperSonic? Drop YES or NO below 👇

Gary Payton didn’t just play defense. He talked, tormented, and took pride in it. Nicknamed “The Glove,” Payton built a reputation as one of the most relentless perimeter defenders the NBA has ever seen, locking up the league’s best guards while letting them hear about it every possession.
Drafted by the Seattle SuperSonics in 1990, Payton became the face of the franchise throughout the 1990s. Alongside Shawn Kemp, he helped lead Seattle to the 1996 NBA Finals, where his defense reached legendary status. When Payton was guarding you, nothing came easy. He read passing lanes, picked pockets, and disrupted offenses with elite instincts, physicality, and nonstop trash talk. A 9× NBA All-Star, 9× All-Defensive First Team member, and NBA Defensive Player of the Year, Payton is one of the few point guards to ever win the award. He finished his career with over 21,000 points and 8,900 assists, proving he was far more than just a defender. He could score, facilitate, and control the pace while being the loudest presence on the floor.
Over his career, Gary Payton played for the Seattle SuperSonics, Milwaukee Bucks, Los Angeles Lakers, Boston Celtics, and Miami Heat. It was with Miami that he finally won an NBA Championship in 2006, adding a ring to an already Hall of Fame résumé.
Gary Payton’s legacy is edge, confidence, and competitiveness. He embraced the challenge of guarding the best every night. No fear. No backing down. Just pride.

@WeMissThoseDays: Remember 1994 Reebok Kamikaze✨💚 Shawn Kemp was drafted in 1989 by the Seattle SuperSonics and by 1994 he was a highflying super-man All Star athlete. Ready for his first signature Shuz, REEBOK signed Sean Kemp to a deal, and immediately begin designing the kamikaze one. Ricardo Vestuti took inspiration from a Venezuelan, visual artist and the final result would change REEBOK identity forever. Minimal branding with bold aggressive design helped REEBOK move past the pump era into a new exciting space for basketball footwear. The Seattle supersonics were becoming a powerhouse in the NBA with the best record, the best jerseys, and now the best sneakers. Sonics were next up as Michael Jordan retired from the Chicago Bulls. Retail price for the REEBOK kamikaze 1 $80. Did you ever own a pair? — [background images: @al_miszapas @complex_au] #wemissthosedays #retro #fyp #nostalgia #90s #1994 #1995 #reebok #reebokclassic #reebokkamikaze #shawnkemp #seattle #supersonics #nba #basketballsneakers #sneakers #wdywt #hypebeast #ebaysneakers #igsneakercommunity #throwback #tbt #flashback #fbf
