NBA Free Agents 2014 Rumors: NBA MVP Kevin Durant Reveals Thoughts on Lebron James Returning to Cleveland Cavaliers (VIDEO)

Oklahoma City Thunder superstar Kevin Durant revealed his thoughts regarding his friend Lebron James returning to the Cleveland Cavaliers during a brand new interview.

"I thought it was well-thought-out. It was classy. It was a great move to do it as a letter," said Durant to reporters, after he trained with the rest of USA Basketball team on July 29, "That was pretty cool. It's funny seeing guys think about more than just basketball for once."

The NBA MVP further expressed his thoughts on the impact of James coming back home to Ohio.

"[Lebron] thought about the city where he comes from, about Northeast Ohio and how he can affect so many of the kids just being there playing basketball. I love that. So many guys get criticized for making the decision that's best for them, instead of what's best for everybody else. He's a guy that did that. You gotta respect that. I applauded him, I texted him and told him congratulations on the decision and told him I was happy for him. As a fan of the game, it's going to be pretty cool to see him back in Cleveland," said Durant.

The 25-year-old Washington, DC native made the following statement when he was asked if he might play for his hometown team (The Washington Wizards) when he becomes a free agent in the near future:

"I'm going to do what's best for me," said Durant. "It's hard to talk about that right now when I've got two years left in Oklahoma City. I'm just going to focus on that. I'm not going to make a decision based on what anybody else does. I grew up watching the Bullets/Wizards. I grew up taking the train to that arena, all the time, to watch Georgetown, the Bullets, the Washington Mystics. That whole city is a part of me. It's in my blood. I love going back home, seeing my family and playing there, but I love Oklahoma City too."
