Excellent news from Oklahoma City, where Kevin Durant announced today that he’d acquired an extremely cute and wrinkly bulldog puppy named Zo:
Kevin Durant got an adorable puppy, joins the All-NBA Puppy First Team
HI ZO!


No idea why the dog’s called baby Zo (Alonzo Mourning?), but I do know that adopting Zo immediately put Durant into the vaunted First Team of NBA Players Who Are Known To Own Cute Young Doggies By Me And My Colleague Rodger Sherman. Here’s the whole lineup:
PG: Russell Westbrook (Sasha)
SG: Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (Adopted this “little weenie thing”)
SF: Durant (Zo)
PF: Quincy Pondexter (Buckets)
(Not Kendrick Perkins, who sold his dog on Twitter.) (Chris Mullin would be on this team if he were still in the league, if only because of this photo.)
If you know of more and/or better NBA puppies, let us know. That’s our first team for now.
