Kevin Durant claims that he never wanted the NBA Spotlight: “Just wanted money, buckets and girls.”

In his most recent eruption on social media, the star Kevin Durant, the star of Phoenix Suns, did not hold back anything in a passionate interaction with fans. In a now deleted post on X, Durant claimed that never wanted the NBA Spotlight and he only joined the league to pursue wealth and fame.

“Well, I never loved the spotlight anyway,” said Durant. “Wanted only money, buckets and girls.”

Not every NBA player is there out of love for the game. Most NBA athletes are driven by money and will do everything possible to maximize their income. Over the years, Durant has presented himself as a different kind of player than one who plays with respect for craft rather than the obligation or the pure necessity.

In a single tweet, Durant challenged this story and injured his reputation forever. Now that his motifs and intentions become increasingly unclear, the fans have become restless, and it is due to Durant to answer the call and make some of his previous mistakes well again.

The 36-year-old Durant was confiscated in 2007 and he became one of the greatest goal scorers in the game. As a 2x champion, former MVP and 15-way all-star, his legacy is already secured with the greatest legends of sport. Nevertheless, Durant has always been a controversial player.

His first important decision was to compete with the Golden State Warriors in 2016. He destroyed the balance of power of the NBA and many fans were annoyed to take the “simple route” into a championship. In the golden state, Durant hugged the villain personality and began to return the fans.

In contrast to other NBA stars, Durant was not afraid to challenge the stories, and his fearlessness led to frequent confrontations with the community. Today Durant had the time to hire the fans again with the suns from the late season, and he did not hold back.

“Damn. Why do you talk as if I had fallen from Grace because I had a crazy drink and playing? Stop being dramatic, man Lolol,” wrote Durant to a fan who questioned his legacy.

Durant's place in the ranking of all time is still ready for debate, but without another title that has been reinforced for his résumé, many have the feeling that he has not triggered his potential. However, Durant does not deal with meaningless ranking lists, and he is only for himself.

Historically speaking, Durant was a superstar only for tires. After a failed season with the sun, however, Durant was caught in the middle of trading rumors, and his departure is anything but safe in this low season.

Since several teams are considering a striving for Durant, they have to get his actions off the square and what kind of guide he can be for them. Based on his history of commitments with the fans, it is clear that Durant has a very short security, but the only way to silence the haters is to achieve the right results where they count the most.
