Kevin Durant Full College Highlights vs Texas Tech (2007.01.31) - 37 Pts, 23 Reb, BEAST!

[@fredericleang9595]

I was at that game ! I was an exchange student at Texas Tech from France... That night I saw this tall skinny kid nailing shot after shot and hitting his chest with his fist ... no one has dominated college basketball as a freshman the way he did... amazing! thanks for posting this vid!

[@CPAJayhawk]

saw him live against KU. I've never seen a college player so obviously on another level than anyone else on the floor.

[@whitiscool1]

as a lifelong texas basketball fan, this was one of the greatest and most entertaining seasons i've had the pleasure of following. what a player.

[@tracysavage3632]

Omar Little ik were Marlo is making da drop

[@chillychinchilla1113]

averaging 32 points a game as a FRESHMAN... unreal

[@bballer191]

+george clooney And he grabbed 23 rebounds this game...

[@handsomesquidward8686]

EveryDayIsAGoodDay Ralph Sampson was a beast in the NBA before he got all those injuries. Him and Hakeem were going to be an amazing duo.

[@db-hj9cu]

EveryDayIsAGoodDay u don't know what you talking about man. College hoop means alot in terms of NBA success. Hansbrough wasn't dominant in college he was dominant against certain players and teams but when he faced nba talent and size down low he wasn't. KD was hitting 20 a game every single game against anybody. He had the same consistency he has in the nba.

[@mhj626]

Ralph sampson is in the hall of fame so

[@bballer191]

Damn he was unconscious this game. Couldn't stop him. You knew he was gonna be special too.

[@goodman5836]

He's lowkey the best in the league. When he finds that rythym.....👀

[@moralester]

as a freshman they callin KD the best in all of college???? he was playing with those boys that man looks like the GOAT here

[@burntout9360]

still my fav player

[@jtroberts16]

Greg Oden healthy or not, it still makes no sense why Portland passed on Durant.

[@CarlosCooksChi]

+A Very Hopeful Laker Fan I mean oden was handled by Horford and Noah while Durant was dueling the likes of Kansas virtually by himself

[@bballer191]

+Carlos Peterson wouldn't say by himself. DJ Augustin and AJ Abrams were really good college players too. But yea, Durant should've gone #1 regardless. Hindsight is always 20/20 though.

[@AJVersatility19]

+J.T. Roberts Hindsight. But still, a healthy Oden would be owning the league right now and this wouldn't be this much of a debate.

[@isaiahthomas1649]

+AJVersatility19 no he wouldn't be...

[@AJVersatility19]

Isaiah Thomas He absolutely would be. Either you don't know how good he was, or you just forgot how dominant he was when he actually took the floor. The only thing he had a problem with was foul trouble.

[@keithmarcus8638]

I came here to see whether Brandon Ingram could become the next Kevin Durant. Conclusion: NOPE

[@samonthecreek]

+Keith Marcus me too lmao

[@derrickrose8615]

lol not as strong as Kevin was at that

[@gfas4046]

U never know

[@mishagelenava2962]

+Keith Marcus Same reason brought me here. Still like Ingram

[@jt8390]

.

[@baskingbal1]

I am a Duke fan, but I fail to see how anybody would think that Ingram could become the "next Kevin Durant".

[@Fent-]

Luke Jackson literally just the long arms Ingram is like a slashing point forward Durant can literally do everything on offense

[@MrBallaBoy21]

I remember watching this game. I didn't know he had 23 rebounds tho got damn :O

[@shay2125]

I love this guy so much been following since Texas days and still watch his highlights till today. He is without a doubt the best player in da league in my opinion.

[@blackricktheruler]

Ben Simmons is the best prospect since LeBron huh?Even experts can be idiots.

[@DopeComedian]

right lol

[@eathynburns9190]

Rick Scorsese heck no

[@just_a5.7]

he can't even shoot

[@mhj626]

No ben is not lol kd is easily the best after LeBron its not even up for debate.

[@lostinYourReality]

This guy will probably win MVP in the NBA. I think he'll probably be a lottery pick as well. He's just amazing.

[@yaw9373]

Nah, I just have that feeling that he's going to be a bust. I don't know, I think it's a gut feeling.

[@jloading4750]

+lostinYourReality I just have a feeling you are completely serious.

[@BramptonWasteMan]

+Brandon Van wow. sarcasm flew right over u

[@sethwilson6434]

Right, he made it, twice

[@ruth2550]

KD has always been a walking bucket I see why he won the Naismith Award his freshman year in college

[@ericblake279]

At the end, on the ESPN bottom ticker, it shows that Kobe had 43 in a win against the Celtics. GD has that game's highlights, labeled as 43 points +crazy dunk! Pretty cool these 2 went ham the same night, one in college and the other in the NBA

[@kefkapalazzo1]

ridiculous how young some of these guys look as freshman. like babies

[@williamhardenbergh4218]

THIS WAS THE DAY KD BECAUSE MY FAVORITE PLAYER IN ALL OF SPORTS

[@keltonaarris4045]

A little too skinny to compete in the pros. He'll probably be a nice role player but nothing more

[@Flamangatang]

someone should show KD this video. he must've forgot what it was like to dominate on the blocks while using his jumper secondary.

[@therealmvp1024]

Coach Lol things are different in the NBA... No longer able to body everyone

[@superjede334]

dud is unreal. Cant wait for this upcoming season

[@javianjohnson8746]

KD was just NASTY in college 😷

[@javianjohnson8746]

3:56 smh announcer missed a perfect opportunity to say “35 for 35”

[@kefkapalazzo1]

2:25 portland should've picked him up after seeing that move right there

[@AustenHilton]

I love how everyone was saying oden was so much better when Durant had 30 20 games 😂😂

[@aeroconz]

Oden healthy was a monster, closest thing to shaq I have seen in the last decade+, had he not been made of glass we could be talking about him as one of the best centers to ever play the game

[@kalvinbaber5484]

It’s easy to say now but he just looked special.

[@devinmccampbell9661]

He had like 3, or 4 37 point games his FR yr #DAMN

[@joshbenedict1054]

Could you imagine if he had stayed all 4 years at Texas??

[@Jerrel28]

I always think what if Lamarcus Aldridge would have stayed one more year. You would have had Aldridge, Durant, D.J Augustine, and A.J. Abrams. That would have been a legendary Texas team.

[@KamTeezly]

He had a lot of talent too bad he's in China now. Could've been a good 12-14 points off the bench.

[@akeembrown7661]

Kameezus Christ sounds exactly like Michael beasely

[@josiahthibodeaux]

Can't stand collage basketball, but man this skinny kid was something special.

[@RRRRRRRRR33]

I think he is the most unique player in bball history considering his body type. Its against the laws of nature a 6'11 dude to move and play like this.

How did this Texas team not dominate with Durant and Augustine?

Crazy how Jarrius ended up in the euro

[@jacqcm11]

How in world kd got 23 rebounds

[@DJMarcBlends]

Ya'll realize KD averaged let me repeat Averaged 25 a game. Ingram didn't even explode for as much as 30pts in ONE game. lmao Stop it

[@isidroundercover]

+Marcus Hooks To be fair, KD was the man in Texas, he had no one to take shots away from him. Ingram in Duke has other players that take shots away from him. For Example KARL ANTHONY TOWNS in Kentucky only avg. 10 pounds and 6 rebounds his freshman year because he had other players that ate up on his stats. Stats could be misleading.

[@DJMarcBlends]

So. Ingram not the man on his team then. Got it lol

[@DJMarcBlends]

Ben Simmons not the only 5star recruit on his team either. He's just dominate

[@isidroundercover]

Really? tell me who? Ben Simmons is a good example of this. He is basically a guy that could do whatever he wants on the basketball court no real competition. His stats are a little inflated. Don't get me wrong a love Simmons. I do feel he will be a Star in the NBA and i would take him over Ingram but its closer then u think. Also Ingram is a Whole year younger then Simmons. You're telling me that in a Year Ingram will not improve more?
