Kevin Durant is not only one of the most reliable scorers in the NBA, but the Phoenix Suns star can usually be counted on to respond to something he disagrees with in the media.
On Christmas Day, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported that people in the Suns organization have noticed Durant’s frustration with how the team has played with Bradley Beal and Devin Booker sidelined by injuries. Those rumblings gained more heat when Durant scored only 16 points on 4-of-11 shooting with six turnovers in Phoenix’s 128–114 loss to the Dallas Mavericks.
However, Durant showed that he was aware of Wojnarowski’s report and any fan criticisms that resulted from it with a comment on Instagram. The post that Durant responded to showed a clip of a poor defensive effort against Dallas with a tweet asking “Has Kevin Durant checked out.” More specifically, Durant replied to a comment that said, “He’s starting to be in that cancer/cry baby conversation.”
