What’s My Name?

Kevin Durant needs one.

Kevin DurantWe asked Kevin Durant himself if he has any nicknames, and all he could come up with is “KSmoove.” It’s absurdities like that which got us into the nickname business in the first place. Here’s a player with as much pure offensive talent as anyone to come into the League this millennium, as he showed most recently in the Rookie-Sophomore Game. Obviously, this guy needs a nickname that honors his abilities—and he’s on record as asking us for one. Kevin needs your help.

Whoever has the best nickname will win a dope prize from the SLAM vault and get their name in Trash Talk next month.
