Kevin Durant has recently garnered significant attention due to trade speculation surrounding him. After a lengthy process involving interest from various teams, the two franchises that came closest to acquiring Durant were the Miami Heat and the Houston Rockets.
The Golden State Warriors also appeared in the trade rumours. Durant played three seasons with the Warriors, winning two NBA championships. Recently, Durant commented on his reasons for being reluctant to rejoin the Warriors amidst speculation involving head coach Steve Kerr.
A fan recently claimed on his post on X (formerly Twitter) that Kerr was the reason Durant didn’t rejoin the Warriors. However, Durant quickly responded to that fan with a strong statement.
“We still on this??? Obvious opportunity for Logan Murdock to gain even more attention and try too revive his career by using my name and the Warriors. The audience is SICK AND TIRED of the same bullshit narrative. Be better my man,” Durant wrote.
