Kevin Durant is looking out considered one of his former NBA teammates this week.
Ex-All-Star large man DeMarcus Cousins drew consideration on Friday with an explosive declare he made in regards to the Phoenix Suns. Cousins went on FanDuel TV’s “Run It Again” and claimed that the Suns obtained into a number of fistfights with one another within the locker room this season.
“There was numerous issues that occurred,” mentioned Cousins of the Suns, per Bleacher Report. “There was numerous issues that haven’t been reported. I don’t wanna be the man to report it, however I’ve positively heard of some adverse issues within the locker room. There was a few fistfights. There was loads occurring that clearly carries over to the courtroom.”
The main declare from Cousins led to a profane response from the Suns star Durant on X.
“I’ve to contest this 94 footer,” wrote Durant. “This some bulls–t to throw on us. Yea yea yea we had been trash this 12 months ha ha ha however we NEVER obtained near this. NEVER.”
Cousins then fired again at Durant on X and matched his vitality.
“The supply was considered one of your teammates killa,” wrote Cousins to Durant. “And I wasn’t referring to you! . Save this s–t for the others homie…”
Cousins clearly didn’t title who his supply was. However he did was teammates with a few present Suns, together with Damion Lee on the 2018-19 Golden State Warriors and Monte Morris on the 2021-22 Denver Nuggets.
As for Durant, he himself was teammates with Cousins on these 2018-19 Warriors as effectively. The previous MVP Durant is adamant that no type of fistfighting occurred within the Suns’ locker room this season, whereas Cousins clearly heard that it did (however that it didn’t contain Durant). In any case, although, Phoenix clearly had a poisonous setting this season, and which will culminate with Durant getting traded quickly away.
