Kevin Durant is no stranger to social media. The superstar scorer has built a reputation for being extremely active on X, formerly known as Twitter, over the course of his career. From burner account accusations to targeting the most random basketball fans, Durant isn't afraid to call out the haters.
The future Hall-of-Famer most recently went viral in a discussion about his former Golden State Warriors teammate, Stephen Curry. A fan on X called out Durant and LeBron James in regards to Curry, as he noted Durant only won championships with the two-time MVP, and James is 1-3 in the NBA Finals against him.
