To the relief. Awesome to see.
Kevin Durant gives $1 million to the Red Cross for disaster relief after Oklahoma tornado | NBA | Oklahoma City Thunder (http://www.faniq.com/blog/Kevin-Durant-gives-1-million-to-the-Red-Cross-for-disaster-relief-after-Oklahoma-tornado-Blog-66650)

Good for Durant on that and obviously great for the city during this time.
It really seems OKC gets behind their Thunder and the Thunder do a lot to help out the community. I know a lot of teams do this, but with OKC it just seems a bit more genuine, not sure why.

Matt Kemp is donating 1k$ for every HR he hits to the relief fund too.
KD is amazing, what a classy guy.

OKC's fanbase reminds me of a college town rallying around their team and vice versa. I mean that in a good way.

I was gonna post this up too...but glad you beat me to it. Nicely done, KD... nicely done! Really nice to see all these athletes giving back to the community in some way or another.
What will the media reaction be if Westbrook pledges $1.1 million?
Good job by KD and all others helping out.

That's a lot of money, I don't care how much he makes - Donating $1 million (to any cause) is beyond generous :)

I can see that comparison for sure!!! KD is a great guy it seems and a good role model.

KD donates 1 min to Red Cross, DWade pulls a PR stunt and dances with a girl at prom. Wish there were more guys like KD as the face of the NBA

Guys, I have been an Okie my entire life and it is an awesome place to live. The people are great and they help each other out on a daily basis. Obviously a big tragedy like this puts the spotlight on the state but it is something that is expected when living here. I'm glad to see him give up his money to help out and it will definitely go a long way. Hopefully there will be more people step up and help out because it will definitely be needed to help everyone out that was impacted by the tornado. Hopefully Matt Kemp heats up so that he can donate a large amount of money also.

Glad to see KD embrace our Okie spirit. It was a mess down there today but like with every tragedy in Oklahoma, we all pull together to help each other out.
A big thank you to Kevin Durant.

and there is always one jerkoff to turn something into a bash the heat moment.
You do realize wade has donated tons of money right?
