Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant has taken a shot at former NBA stars who claim their era is more physical than the modern game.
According to numerous ex players and legends from the 1980s and 1990s, the NBA was a combat sport. Former stars point to how perimeter defenders could hand-check as they pleased amid a tougher and more physical era of basketball.
Durant is an outspoken NBA superstar and recently challenged the view that the older eras were more physical. Aside from some uncalled flagrant fouls, the former MVP has been studying old game film and doesn’t really agree with the viewpoint.
