Madison Booker and Kevin Durant have a Texas connection that goes beyond the Longhorns.

Madison Booker is an incredible player for Texas, but her game might look kind of familiar. She's an assassin from midrange, just like another Longhorns star who exploded in March Madness. That's right, the comparisons to Kevin Durant are there, and they're not accidental.
