Leaked images of Kevin Durant in a San Antonio Spurs uniform have surfaced—complete with a surprising jersey number choice. The photos, reportedly from a secret promotional shoot, were never meant for the public eye, yet their sudden leak has sparked massive reactions across social media, news outlets, and even within the Spurs organization itself.
The photos show Durant donning a sleek, modern Spurs jersey—black and silver with a bold twist—and wearing the number 35, the same number he wore during his early days with the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Brooklyn Nets. Fans expected Durant to pick a new number if he ever joined San Antonio, out of respect for Spurs legends. Instead, the decision to return to 35—despite it not being retired—has raised eyebrows and set off debates.
The leak was first posted late Wednesday night by an anonymous X (formerly Twitter) user and quickly gained traction, racking up millions of views and trending under hashtags like #DurantToSpurs and #SpursChaos. Some fans are ecstatic, interpreting the photos as a near-confirmation of Durant’s arrival. Others, particularly die-hard Spurs loyalists, are split—unsure how to reconcile Durant’s often-controversial legacy with the Spurs’ culture-first identity.
“This feels surreal. KD in silver and black? I never thought I’d see the day,” said longtime Spurs fan Javier Morales on a fan forum. “But I’m not sure how I feel about him rocking #35. It just doesn’t feel like us.”
Adding to the confusion, neither Durant nor the Spurs organization has officially commented on the leak. However, sources close to the situation say a major announcement could be coming within days, possibly aligning with the upcoming NBA Draft or free agency period.
The chaos isn’t limited to fans—NBA insiders have weighed in too. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski tweeted, “This leak wasn’t planned. Spurs front office was blindsided. Still developing.”
If the leak turns out to be legitimate, Durant joining the Spurs would mark one of the biggest moves in recent NBA memory, instantly reshaping San Antonio’s rebuild around young phenom Victor Wembanyama.
Until confirmation arrives, the NBA world remains in a frenzy—grappling with the idea of one of basketball’s most polarizing stars wearing one of the league’s most storied jerseys.
