Kevin Durant teased that he is on Threads with a ‘burner’ account and now we have to find him

Without a doubt in my mind, Phoenix Suns superstar Kevin Durant is the most interesting social media user in the NBA.

He joins Twitter Spaces just to dunk on his haters and he has used social media to own his critics over and over again. Sometimes, he uses “burner” accounts so he doesn’t reveal his true identity, which is a smart way for him to clap back without causing too much drama.

Now that seemingly everyone is flocking from Twitter to Threads, the Meta-owned competitor from Mark Zuckerberg built to rival Elon Musk’s failing social media platform, Durant says he has joined the party as well.

But according to Durant, it might not be easy to find him right away.

Although most users on Threads are just transferring their Instagram usernames, the two-time NBA Finals MVP says that he is going to start off using a burner account.

He has also issued us a challenge: Come find him. I’m not sure exactly how to start my search process, but I can assure you this: If he uses Threads any way like how he uses Twitter, the payoff will be worth it.
