Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant gave his honest thoughts on the Stephen Curry-Ja Morant social media tiff, one that took off during the days before the trade deadline.
Things got a bit chippy in the midst of the Andre Iguodala trade deadline shuffle, as the Memphis Grizzlies rookie was quick to back up teammate Dillon Brooks and his disapproving comments of the veteran. It didn't take long before Curry took to Instagram to shush them with a photo of Iguodala with the Golden State Warriors 2018 championship trophy.
Durant was soon pulled into the mix in a championship-celebration photo that Morant had in response for Curry.
Durant, despite being foreign to this whole back-and-forth, did his best to take a stab at how these things went over at Golden State.
“I don't know,” Durant told Bleacher Report's Taylor Rooks in the second episode of Take It There. “There has always been speculation about what my place on the team was and what I meant to the team, but I don't think anyone on the Warriors was upset that he posted a picture of me.
“We're all brothers and we've won championships together. It wasn't anything more than a little jab, I guess?”
It seems Durant didn't gain any sense of vindication for his move from Morant's social media barbs.
He seems to be in good standing with his former teammates, as was recently demonstrated when the Warriors faced the Nets earlier this month. It's all love from KD, even after he chose to go eastward to form his own superteam in Brooklyn.
