On August 7, according to US media reports, Golden State Warriors announced their pre-season schedule, in which they will face the Lakers with James twice.

For warriors superstar Kevin Durant, a return to Seattle will be of great significance. This is Durant's return to Seattle 10 years after 2008.
Kevin Durant was selected by the Seattle SuperSonics in the second place in the first round of the 2007 NBA draft. In Durant's rookie season, he can contribute 20.3 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.4 assists to the Sonics.
In 2008, the new owner of the team moved the team to Oklahoma and changed its name to thunder. Since then, there has been no Seattle SuperSonics in the NBA. After moving to Oklahoma, Durant showed his star power and led the thunder team to the rise, once leading the team to the finals. Now, he left thunder to join Golden State Warriors, and won the championship for two consecutive years. Coming back to Seattle, I think Durant will have a good memory of his rookie season.
