In the midst of the Kevin Durant social media drama, newly re-signed Oklahoma City Thunder forward Andre Roberson wants nothing to do with it all.
Having removed himself from implications that he might have been the player telling Enes Kanter not to come back to the team if he socialized with Durant, Roberson is just looking forward to the season ahead, refusing to look back to what he considers very much the past.
“I mean, it's only gonna keep being relevant the more we talk about it, so I just don't like to touch on it,” Roberson told Erik Horne of The Oklahoman. “Can't control it. We control what we do over here in our organization.”
“I just leave it alone and it is what it is.”
Durant apologized to the organization and its head coach Billy Donovan after making reckless comments to a critic over Twitter that pained the Thunder in a bad light.
Kanter took on the chance to sing his praise for his teammates, fans, and the organization yesterday after Durant issued his apology as a springboard to endear himself to fans.
The rift between Durant and the core of the Thunder is very much real and so is the resentment that has built for both sides, making an amicable resolution far from possible as things stand a year after his departure.
