NBA fans online saw a triggered version of Kevin Durant on Sunday morning after a Steph Curry fan hit the Suns star's nerve. It all started when a fan praised Jimmy Butler for being a solid player on Curry's side and claimed that the baby-faced assassin did not have a player like Butler by his side in his career.

On Friday, however, one fan slammed that take and brought Durant into the conversation by reposting the Butler praise on X. Soon after that, another fan named Ken expressed his opinion and named Curry as the smartest player of all time to have KD leave the team and allegedly get the credit for the Warriors dynasty's run.

However, the Suns' star was not pleased with the opinions floating around the subject and decided to enter the conversation. He roasted Ken and called him an overly emotional fan.

"Ken may be the most emotionally invested Stan in this basketball shit, I really respect the fandom my boy. U really committed to pushing these agendas for your favorite player. U deserve compensation real S**t," Durant commented.

Another fan jumped in on the conversation and reposted KD's reply and highlighted that the Suns star was not trying to debate, so his response was cordial. Durant then replied to the repost and smacked the toxic fans with a strong response.

"NONE of these guys can talk real hoops with me. I’d bury em all," Durant commented.
