Kevin Durant is no beginner in clashing with people on social media. Recently, he humorously replied to a user after claiming that the NBA veteran is secretly behind an infamous troll account at X/Twitter.
‘KD’ is widely known for making silly puns throughout his career. Many accuse him of having alt accounts, which he used to argue with people online. Now, people again claim that he continues to use the account ‘NBA Centel,’ which posts trolls about NBA players.
‘NBA Centel’ often displays posts about or related to Durant and even has a cover picture from a previous troll post by him. Even the Phoenix Suns’ forward had mentioned the troll account at one point.
Kevin Durant’s other post tagging the NBA Centel even raised people’s suspicions further:
“Sometimes I wake up and look at @TheNBACentel comments just to truly see how many dummies come online thinking that they have high iq. Good morning,” Durant posted at X

A user from X dared to claim that Kevin Durant’s burner account is the NBA Centel. The former MVP rejected the claims with a hilarious reply:
“Tomatoes tomatoes tomatoes,” Durant replied.

Despite his hotspot clashes on social media being over, Kevin Durant remains engaged with his fans and other users.
The following season is Durant’s third year with the Suns. Last season, he averaged 27.1 points, 5.0 assists, and 6.6 rebounds over 75 games.
Kevin Durant spotted with Russell Westbrook during football game
Last Saturday, Pheonix Suns’ star Kevin Durant was unexpectedly seen with former teammate Russell Westbrook watching together at a football game in Folsom Field in Colorado.
Both players were considered a formidable duo during their young years at the Oklahoma City Thunder, where they led the team into numerous playoff appearances, including a trip to the 2012 NBA Finals.
Despite achieving numerous awards, their relationship became nasty, which worsened their run, culminating in Durant’s leave from the Thunder in 2015 after failing to get another finals appearance.
However, tensions between the two players softened as the years passed. At one point, the latter even said he harbors no “beef” with the former anymore.
“It’ll be normal for me. I think people still think there’s some beef or something. There’s no beef. I got not hing but respect for him and things he’s done with his career. Happy to see him back from injury,” Westbrook on facing Durant during the 2022-23 playoffs

It’s a massive relief for the fans to see Durant and Westbrook dapping up in the recent football game. However, both players continue to be intensely competitive as they clash with each other on the course.
