NBA fans are buzzing about the latest crossover between basketball and gaming, as Call of Duty announced that Kevin Durant will be featured as an official operator in the upcoming Season 4 of the popular video game series.

Durant, who is one of the best players in the league and a two-time NBA champion, is also a passionate gamer and a fan of Call of Duty. He will be part of a limited-time store bundle that will be available sometime in May when Call of Duty Warzone Season 4 launches.

The bundle will include two weapon blueprints that are inspired by Durant’s nicknames. The “Reap This” AR blueprint is based on his alter ego, “Slim Reaper”, while the “Easy Money” sniper blueprint is a tribute to his nickname “Easy Money Sniper”.

According to the official Call of Duty website, both blueprints are made for versatile operators who can excel in any situation, just like Durant on the hardwood. The bundle will also include a KD-themed charm, sticker, calling card, and emblem.

The news of Durant’s inclusion in Call of Duty has sparked utter excitement and humor among fans of both basketball and gaming. Many took to social media to share their opinions and jokes about the collaboration.

Some fans complimented Durant for his involvement in the Esports scene. But others poked fun at Durant’s controversial team-switch decisions. Leaving Oklahoma City Thunder to join the Golden State Warriors in 2016, his latest move to join Phoenix Suns, leaving Brooklyn Nets to join Devin Booker and Chris Paul, both of which were seen as a betrayal and a decision to join a super team.

Some fans joked that Durant would switch teams mid-game in Call of Duty or join the enemy team if they were winning.

The reaction to Durant’s collaboration with Call of Duty was mostly positive and playful, as fans enjoyed the opportunity to play as one of their favorite athletes in one of the popular games. The crossover is expected to increase the popularity and sales of both brands, as well as create more engagement and interaction between the gaming and sports communities.
