Durant playing it mostly safe with NCAA bracket

Sam Sharpe-USA TODAY Sports

March means filling out brackets, and Kevin Durant was nice enough to do one for USA Today that could be publicly scrutinized.

Certainly, Kentucky is a logical pick for this year's champion. Durant's alma mater - Texas - didn't have an outstanding year, but he did his duty as an alumnus in picking them to win a round. As an Oklahoma resident, he's got OU going to the Sweet Sixteen.

His flyer: taking LSU to knock off Villanova in the Round of 32.
