Kevin Durant is currently looking to turn things around drastically from this season. Durant and Co. had one of the most forgettable experiences playing for the Phoenix Suns. Aiming to get themselves a possible title run, the Suns faltered badly. As a result, Durant was constantly bombarded with harsh criticism and trolls. In reply, KD was not shy about talking back to all the trolls who tried to get on his nerves. However, this time around, Durant came up with something unique.
Recently, one of the fans asked the Suns’ star to stop bothering about the trolls on the internet. The fan pointed out that Durant must refrain from commenting on all the criticism he faces. Instead, he could show love to his fans who actually cared for him. Obliging the request, Durant immediately responded.
“I love You,” Durant wrote on X, responding to the fan.
