Kevin Durant has another social media beef, this time with Suns owner Mat Ishbia
Ishbia joins the illustrious club of Klay Thompson, Kendrick Perkins, and others who have gotten into a social media tiff with Durant.
Kevin Durant has sparked another social media controversy, this time targeting Phoenix Suns owner Mat Ishbia. Durant, who played for the Suns from 2023 to 2025, expressed dissatisfaction with the team's acquisition of him during a CNBC Sports podcast interview. Ishbia's comments about spending "kind of threw money at the problem" and that Durant's presence didn't guarantee championships prompted Durant to reply with a sarcastic "#blameKD" comment.
Durant's performance that season was impressive, averaging 26.6 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 4.2 assists per game. Despite the tension, Ishbia remained optimistic about the team's culture and future prospects. The two former teammates will face each other again as Houston and Phoenix will play three times this season.
