Last week, a report came from ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith that Oklahoma City Thunder star Kevin Durant would consider heading to Los Angeles and joining the Lakers when his current contract expires after this season. When asked about the rumor by Anthony Slater of the Oklahoman, Durant said, “I don’t talk to Stephen A Smith at all. Nobody in my family, my friends, they don’t talk to Stephen A Smith. So he’s lying.”
Durant may’ve overstepped his boundaries a bit when he called Smith a liar, but Smith’s response really crossed the line.
