Kevin Durant was not happy with Bam Adebayo at Team USA practice for not adhering to proper basketball etiquette.
Adebayo was rebounding during shootaround, and appeared to take Durant’s ball after a made shot, which is obviously a big no-no in any proper shooting setting.
Durant was having none of it.
Not @Bam1of1 breaking basketball law. @KDTrey5 wasn’t having it 😆

Kevin Durant explained why he was so upset with Adebayo.
Dog seen me knock down the corner three and proceeds to work on his ball handling with the ball I green bean’d wit. Bro gotta learn some respect @Bam1of1 https://t.co/OX4YeJLa5k

Bam Adebayo was quick to call Kevin Durant our, saying Damian Lillard took KD’s ball, and Durant was just trying to “little bro” him.
Stop Lying @KDTrey5 😐. You Saw @Dame_Lillard Take Your Rock. You Just Tried To Little Bro Me 🖕🏾 https://t.co/D8itKlecs6

After the whole thing blew up, Kevin Durant tried to play it off like he was just joking with Bam.

It seems like Bam Adebayo was just the latest victim of one of Kevin Durant’s bizarre social media troll jobs.
I doubt any more drama will carry into Team USA.
