Kevin Durant's Mom Defends Her Son Against ESPN's Stephen A. Smith

Wanda Durant, the mother of Golden State Warriors star Kevin Durant, appeared on ESPN's First Take on Sunday and criticized panelist Stephen A. Smith for calling her son "arrogant."

"I thought [what he said] was quite harsh," Wanda Durant commented (h/t Steven Ruiz of For the Win). "It's like, 'who are you, Stephen A., to come at my boy like that?' When he came to ESPN? Was that a weak move for him? He joined some more heavy hitters, right? To up his career, right? To do what was best for him.
