Kevin Durant Puts Down Monster Jam In Preseason Kickoff Game

In the first game of the NBA exhibition season Saturday in Turkey, Istanbul, Oklahoma City Thunder Kevin Durant scored 24 points to lead the team to a 95-82 victory over host Fenerbahce Ulker.

The 25-year-old also added eight rebounds in the city where he was MVP of the Olympic World Basketball Championship in 2010, when he led the U.S. to gold. During the game, Durant  laid down the monster jam kicking off his epic highlight reel early.

The dunk came in the third quarter when Durant slashed to the basket in an open lane and posterized an Ulker defender. Just watch how Durant elevated from the dotted line for the one-hand dunk in the video below.

The Thunder will travel to Manchester, England, for a heads up game against the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday.
