Kevin Durant is celebrated as one of the best NBA players of all time and someone with unparalleled talent.
But he’s also known as someone who doesn’t mind butting heads with people online.
Speaking with Jalen Rose, Durant opened up about what he isn’t afraid to get into with anonymous followers who start arguments with him.
He said the whole point of social media is to interact with others and that he if is trolled, he will “troll back.”

Durant has made a habit of clapping back at people who critique him, his skills, and his NBA career.
According to him, it’s fair game and all part of being on social media.
He recently upset a fellow NBA star when he pushed back on claims from German star Dennis Schroder, but there have been other occasions of him creating headlines for his social media comments.
He isn’t bothered by the attention that he gets and thinks his success in the league speaks for itself.
Durant should prepare for more online comments in the months ahead.
Many people are closely watching the Phoenix Suns to see how they do in 2024-25.
They are coming off of a very disappointing season and made a few changes in the summer to improve their chances.
If the Suns continue to fall short, a lot of people will call Durant out online and question his leadership skills.
But this latest comment from the two-time champion proves he will be ready to respond.
