Thunder star Kevin Durant's following extends well beyond the state of Oklahoma. 

Durant's No. 35 was the world's fourth-best selling NBA jersey during the 2012/13 season. 

Topping the list was Miami's LeBron James, while Chicago Bulls' star Derrick Rose placed second despite missing all of last season due to injury.  Lakers' future-Hall-of-Famer Kobe Bryant placed third, with Durant fourth and James' Heat teammate Dwyane Wade in fifth.  

Durant also placed fourth in U.S. NBA jersey sales.  Knicks' forward Carmelo Anthony replaced Wade for fifth on the U.S. list.   

Durant, the three-time scoring champion and four-time All-Star, is entering his seventh NBA season.  The Thunder kick the 2013/14 regular season off in Utah on Oct. 30.
