The matchup initiates a homecoming of sorts for Durant, who was selected by the Seattle SuperSonics with the No. 2 overall pick of the 2007 draft. He played his rookie season in Seattle before the team moved to Oklahoma City.

The Kings-Warriors meeting marks the first NBA contest in Seattle since the Sonics relocated in 2008.
