Out with the old, in with the new.

When Kevin Durant left the Oklahoma City Thunder for the Golden State Warriors on July 4, it wasn't just him that would be leaving OKC.

The former Thunder star's restaurant “KD's” quickly shut down after Durant's departure and has now finally been renamed and rebranded as “Legacy Grill.”

Here's a statement from Hal Smith, the restaurant group's founder and CEO:

Smith wants fans and foodies alike to know there will be a new take on some elements of the dining experience, but the essence of the restaurant's menu will be upheld, with the famous fried chicken headlining the fare. Whether diners are in the mood for “fried or fresh,” Smith said guest feedback has been factored into each decision, so there is something to fit every taste. 

Guests will be surrounded by images and memorabilia of more than 200 notable Oklahomans, from astronauts and actors, to civil rights activists and civic leaders, to sports stars and singers, and many more. Distinguished Oklahomans will rotate regularly over time and will celebrate the diversity of Oklahoma's population, representing not only a range of professions and contributions, but also a variety of races, ages and perspectives.  

Many of these pieces will be on loan from the Oklahoma Hall of Fame, one of the state's leading institutions for preserving and recognizing the contributions of Oklahomans to society. 

KD's was a fancy southern cuisine type of restaurant that was Durant's idea. It's interesting that the plan is to keep the menu the same. It must have been a hit.

Durant is actually in the Oklahoma Hall of Fame so if the new restaurant is decorated with memorabilia from the Oklahoma HOF, that might mean Durant's jersey could make an appearance in Legacy Grill? Probably not.

Oklahoma City is doing its best to move on.

“Legacy Grill is creating an atmosphere that aligns with what we at the Oklahoma Hall of Fame do every day, telling our state's amazing story through our people,” said Shannon L. Rich, Oklahoma Hall of Fame CEO. “We think it will help bring a unique aspect to the dining experience and hopefully guests will learn something fun while being inspired by Oklahoma's best and brightest along the way.”
