Kevin Durant won’t be playing when the Warriors visit the Thunder on Monday, but according ESPN’s Chris Haynes the Warriors were not pleased about what happened when KD came back the first time.
The Golden State Warriors organization was furious and bewildered with the inactivity from Oklahoma City Thunder leadership leading up to that first Durant return contest on Feb. 11, league sources told ESPN.
Sources say the Warriors were of the mindset that someone from ownership or management should have addressed the media on Durant’s behalf to help ease the tension upon his return.
The feeling is that Durant should have been acknowledged or thanked, in a news conference setting, for his nine years of excellent service.
Sort of an odd thing for the Warriors to be upset about. I can see KD being upset, but this really has nothing to do with Warriors.
Durant was free to go play where he pleased, but OKC is also free not to like it.
