This week, Kevin Durant, an All-Star for the Phoenix Suns, had time for his critics. Following a video that exposed Kevin’s thin skin during his tenure in Phoenix, Durant replied to heavy criticism on social media when he was seen shouting at his head coach, Mike Budenholzer, during a break in the Los Angeles Lakers’ 107-96 victory against the Suns.
Durant’s tenure with the Suns was magnified, per Arizona Sports’ Dan Bickley.
“Kevin Durant is a great basketball player with a very thick resume and very thin skin,” Bickley said, which triggered a response from Durant.
“You stupid KD Stan’s on the internet forced him to do this, you really got to him this time,” Durant said. “A full video breakdown????? the area underneath Bickley’s skin is occupied by you scumbags and now I have to deal wit it. Shame on you…have a great rest of your day Phoenix and every town in this beautiful state.”
Then, Durant took the time to respond to various users, per X, formerly Twitter.
“When are people going to learn it’s not Suns fans doing this. It’s KD fans creating this divide,” one fan wrote, to which Durant replied, “#blameKD.”
“It must be nice being so rich your only struggle in life is people talking negatively about you. Pro athletes are afforded the privilege of never having to grow up. Real life man child,” another user said underneath Arizona Sports’ video, to which Durant replied, “It must be nice=Im hating because I don’t get to do exactly what that guy is doing , why couldn’t that be me lord??”
