On Friday, the Lakers hosted the Phoenix Suns in their second game of the season. In a leaked game audio, Kevin Durant can allegedly be heard talking trash to the Lakers over a foul call.

The moment came after Durant was caught on camera verbally sparring with Dwight Howard, who was sitting courtside in the crowd.

The leaked video, which lasts 47 seconds, then shows Durant fouling Anthony Davis on a shot attempt, sending the Los Angeles big man to the line. Durant can then allegedly be heard firing off a number of expletives at the Lakers and the referees in frustration.

"That was a whole block. Been a lot of bulls**t man. Y'all some p***y a** n****s. B***h a** n***a man."

Throughout the game, the Suns managed to rack up 26 personal fouls, while on the flip side, the Lakers finished the game with 18 personal fouls. The Lakers wound up finishing the game with far more free-throw attempts than the Suns. LA shot 14-27 from the line, while Phoenix shot 15-17.

"You ain't no Laker" - Kevin Durant goes back and forth with Dwight Howard during Lakers-Suns game

In addition to Durant's mic catching his comments, the mic also caught Durant going back and forth with three-time Defensive Player of the Year Dwight Howard, who won a title with the Lakers in 2020.

During Friday's game, Howard said something to Kevin Durant during a stoppage in play. The comment sparked a back-and-forth between the two that saw the pair of NBA champs trade some playful barbs.

At one point, Durant pointed to Howard being courtside for the Lakers, saying that he isn't a member of the Lakers or even a Lakers legend, he's an Orlando Magic legend:

"You know what it is. You ain't no Laker. You are not no Laker. You're a Magic. You're a Magic. They did you dirty."

Howard responded, agreeing, saying:

"I'm a Magic. I'm a Magic man."

The camera then switches to an angle that shows Howard in the crowd smiling. Of course, Dwight Howard is currently a free agent, and despite being absent from the NBA since the end of the 2021-22 season, still has his sights set on making a return to the NBA.

In the meantime, Howard joined the Taiwan Mustangs as a player-owner heading into the summer. He is thus fulfilling his goal of investing in a league where former NBA players and top college players can go and then compete.
