Kevin Durant Says James Harden Doesn’t ‘Have to Explain Anything to Anybody’ After Trade

After Thursday’s blockbuster trade between the 76ers and Nets, Kevin Durant commented on his former teammate James Harden and his thoughts on the move. Unsurprisingly, Durant isn’t holding any ill will for Harden.

“James doesn't have to explain anything to anybody," Durant said on Saturday, according to ESPN. “He’s his own man. He makes his decisions on his career by himself. He doesn’t owe anybody an explanation, and I wasn’t looking for one.”

Before Brooklyn’s game against Miami Saturday night, Durant went on to say he was unaware that Harden was unhappy with his current situation.
