As Kevin Durant was progressing with his rehab process of his right Achilles before the NBA went on hiatus due to the novel coronavirus pandemic, the Brooklyn Nets star forward was getting in some work on the floor against his teammates. The Nets involved in those workouts were quick to compliment Durant, letting fans know he’s still got it.
And now Durant, himself, has let everyone know that he knows he’s still got it — busting his teammates’ chops in the process.
SLAM posted some clips of Durant, Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George and Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo in a king of the court battle with Team USA, telling followers to “Tag [a] buddy that can’t guard you in 1s.”
Durant replied to the Instagram post, twice, tagging Kyrie Irving, Caris LeVert and former Net Theo Pinson, along with Barack Obama, Drake and Durant’s own mother, among others.
