NBA 2K24, the latest installment of the popular basketball video game series, has been praised for its realistic graphics, alleged ‘Pro-play’ gameplay, and new features. However, some eagle-eyed fans have noticed a curious detail in the game that has sparked a lot of speculation and debate.
Is Brittney Griner Dating Kevin Durant in NBA 2K24?
It seems that NBA 2K24 has Brittney Griner, the WNBA star and Phoenix Mercury center, sitting courtside during Suns games and cheering on Kevin Durant. Some fans have argued that she is only there, because she plays for the Phoenix Mercury, the WNBA team that shares the same arena and city as the Suns.
However, this explanation does not hold up when you consider that Griner was not sitting courtside in past iterations of the game, even though she has been playing for the Mercury since 2013. Moreover, Griner is not the only WNBA player in the game, but she is the only one who appears in such a prominent and specific position.
The presence of Brittney Griner in NBA 2K24 has reignited a rumor that went viral not too long ago: that Kevin Durant and Brittney Griner secretly dated in the past. The rumor was based on an old video where Brittney Griner kissed Kevin Durant on the cheek in a joking manner during the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
The video was shared by several parody accounts on social media, claiming that they were officially dating.
Brittney Griner has been happily married to her wife, Cherelle Griner, since 2019. She also revealed her sexuality in 2013, disclosing that she was gay. Kevin Durant, on the other hand, is very secretive about his love life, and has rarely been seen publicly with other women, which is amazing considering the social media age we live in. This dynamic of them being a very unlikely couple, makes the rumors that much more hilarious.
So why did NBA 2K24 decide to include Brittney Griner as an Easter egg in the game? Is it a harmless nod to two of the best basketball players in Phoenix, or is it a subtle jab at Kevin Durant and his personal life? Some fans have suggested that NBA 2K24 is trolling Kevin Durant, who is known for being sensitive to criticism and having burner accounts on social media.
