Not an OKC fan, but Kevin Durant is a class act--cleaning up the NBA image:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/early-lead/wp/2013/02/11/kevin-durant-hits-another-fan-with-no-kiss-this-time-video/

It’s easy, during a 97-69 blowout, to start thinking of other things and take your eye off the ball.
And that’s never a good idea when you’re sitting in a sweet courtside seat. A woman in Phoenix learned that all too well when a ball slapped by Kevin Durant of the Oklahoma City Thunder hit her smack upside the head Sunday. She was uninjured, but, unlike the lucky fan who was struck in the kisser by an errant tipped pass last fall, this fan didn’t get a smooch on the forehead from Durant.

It also helps that he hasn't forgotten his roots in the DC area and roots for the local teams. Heck he even has a Nats curly W tattooed on his stomach. But he truly seems like a nice guy too.
