Kevin Durant And Bam Adebayo Go Back And Forth On Twitter After Etiquette Issue At Team USA Practice

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.

Kevin Durant explained why he was so upset with Adebayo.

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.

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.
