Thunder fans have moved quickly to remove any traces of Kevin Durant's existence in Oklahoma City.

After shutting down operations last month, Durant's old OKC restaurant "Kd's" has been re-branded, and will re-open in September under an entirely different name.

Hal Smith - the restaurant's founder and CEO of "Legacy Grill" - released a statement regarding the venue's new theme, which will feature more than 200 prominent Oklahoma figures.

"Being founded and headquartered here in central Oklahoma, we've wanted to introduce a concept like this for a long time," Smith stated, according to News 9 Oklahoma.

"Whether guests are old friends or are dining with us for the first time, we think they'll enjoy our combination of upscale comfort food, top-notch service, and a fun, engaging atmosphere."

Unsurprisingly, Durant was not mentioned as one of the "notable Oklahomans" that will be honored at the new restaurant.
