Oklahoma Governor Promises Kevin Durant Cabinet Position If He Re-Signs with OKC

Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin is doing what she can to keep Kevin Durant with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

On Saturday, the 61-year-old promised the superstar free agent a spot in her Cabinet if he re-signs with OKC this summer.

“Oklahoma loves Kevin Durant, and Kevin Durant loves Oklahoma,” Fallin said. “If he’ll stay, I’ll make him a Cabinet person for health and fitness on my Cabinet.”

ESPN.com’s Marc Stein reported on May 31 that Durant is likely to sign a two-year deal with an opt-out for next summer, which would maximize the amount of money he could make.

Russell Westbrook would also hit the market at the same time. Maybe Fallin could offer the point guard a rim-destroying Cabinet spot.
