If the heel of Kevin Durant’s third Nike Basketball signature sneaker looks something like a PlayStation controller, that might be because the Durantula is approaching Tecmo Bo status of late. Having absolutely torched the international basketball community at this summer’s FIBA World Championships, Durant looks to defend his NBA scoring title in the new Nike Zoom KD III. The pair pictured above will be suitable for games away from OKC’s Ford Center, with KD poised to lead his Thunder deeper into the playoffs, and possibly toward a rematch against Kobe and the Lakers. Durant’s a certified superstar and his 2010-11 will be a season to remember, so stick with Sneaker News for all the KDIII release dates along the way. via Eastbay
