With Durant, the Oklahoma City Thunder appears to have competition as the Washington Wizards and the Miami Heat are reportedly looking forward to having the former MVP,Sports World Report has learned.
Durant was the second NBA star to break the MVP award winning streak of LeBron James, who won the award in 2009, 2010, 2012 and 2013. The award was given to Derrick Rose in 2011 and to Durant in 2014.
