Kevin Wayne Durant, the Phoenix Suns’ starting forward, is one of the most difficult players in the NBA league to guard both on and off the court. His standing in the league is undeniably a threat to many, but when it comes to relationships, Kevin remains an enigma yet to be deciphered.
To date, Durant has confounded not only the late NBA legend Kobe Bryant, who retired without unraveling the mystery, but also the entire world, leaving questions about his current and past relationship status, with little to no indications of marriage.

In a candid interview, which was reported in the GQ Magazine in 2015, Durant opened up about his failed engagement, expressing his regret about not knowing how to love Wright the way he should’ve, i.e. the right way. However, Durant’s dating history extends way beyond his engagement to Monico Wright.

Although he expressed a desire for a family in the future, he acknowledged the significant commitment that marriage requires.
Besides all commitment to his past public relationships, the NBA star’s dating history took another public twist with rumors linking him to Lana Rhoades, a former adult film actress and current Instagram fitness model. Rhoades shared insights about her date with an unnamed Brooklyn Nets player, which strongly speculated to be Durant. But despite the buzz, Rhoades claimed that their date was too boring and that he wasn’t “spicy enough for her,” as mentioned on the 3 Ladies, 1 Kitchen podcast.
