My colleague Tim Chapman asked me the question, 'Is Kevin Durant in the house?," after we sat down for the second half of Hofstra's game against Towson. Kevin's older brother Tony is a junior forward for the Tigers, but he's just their sixth-leading scorer.
Kevin plays for the Seattle Supersonics, who are actually in Philadelphia for a 7:00 p.m. game against the 76ers. This game should end at about 2:00 p.m., but it's a four and a half hour drive to Philly from Richmond, where the Colonial Athletic Association tourmament is taking place. That would give Kevin half an hour to get ready for his game.
While it's unlikely that he's even here, he would need a private jet to make the about 250 mile trip in time for game preparations.
But after holding a 31-13 lead at halftime, Tony and the Tigers are only up 41-33 with just over 12 minutes left. Towson calls a 30 second timeout, after its lead is cut to less than 10 for the first time since the opening period.
