Incidentally, he dated WNBA player Monica Wright for quite some time years ago. Moreover, he also proposed to her impulsively. But their relationship did not end well. After their breakup, a heartbroken Durant admitted in a 2015 interview, “I go to sleep at night, like, ’Am I gonna be alone forever?’… Am I gonna have kids?”
