For KD, the opening of the Durant Center is 'truly a dream come true'

Kevin Durant was not present at Warriors practice Wednesday night in Washington.

Don't worry. He had a great excuse.

Durant wasn't practicing because he had somewhere to be: the official opening of College Track at the Durant Center, a new facility in his hometown of Prince George's County, Maryland, aimed at helping low-income and underserved students enroll and graduate from college.

The new state-of-the-art facility will offer students the academic, financial, and social-emotional resources to embolden their college and career goals. It's opening comes a year after Durant announced a personal 10-year, $10 million commitment to Prince George's County.
