Durant is fed up with Twitter burner account allegations
Durant does not want people to buy on rumors. When asked about the alleged burner account situation, the NBA legend replied:
"I know you’ve got to ask these questions, but I’m not here to get into Twitter (X) nonsense.”
The four-time Olympic gold medalist continued in a backstage interview:
“I’m just here to focus on the season and keep it pushing, but I get that you have to ask those questions."
