NBA star Kevin Durant took to Twitter on Monday morning to show support for Buccaneers running back Giovani Bernard and rip media members after an awkward locker room interview on Sunday.
In videos posted on Twitter, reporters and Bernard jousted verbally when he attempted to leave the locker room without answering questions—specifically about a fake punt attempt that he fumbled. ESPN’s Jenna Laine posted in a tweet that Bernard said, “Oh now you guys want to talk to me,” intimating that the media has seldom sought his comments this season. One reporter can be heard asking Bernard, “What have you done for us to talk to you about all year?”
The tailback only has played in five games this season due to an ankle injury, and he responded, “Can I go to my family that I have outside?”
