<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (NetsDaily)</div><div class='quotemain'>Seattle Times - <u>Kevin Durant</u> and <u>Jeff Green</u> will be going back to school this summer. "Man, if some of my teachers could hear me talking like this they would get a kick out of this," said Durant. "But I'm not going to lie. I miss school. When I left, I was glad that I didn't have to go to class anymore and study hall, but I kind of miss it a little bit." Durant and Green will not play with the Sonics summer league team in Orlando because of their decision to take classes.</div> http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/soni...708_soni01.html Wow, who woulda thunk it. Kevin Durant's going back to school to take classes. That's so...strange.

It is pretty cool actually. I think it is a great example to kids that even millionaire atheletes believe that college is fun and important.
Good for them. I mean, what are they going to do after their careers are over, or if they have some career ending injury at a young age? Besides, less chance for them to get injured if they don't play.
