Kevin Durant is not one to stay quiet, ever. The two-time NBA champion and 14-time NBA All-Star is in the middle of preparing for his second full season with the Phoenix Suns, where he posted an average of 27 points per game last season.

The Suns are not viewed as title contenders this season by many pundits. While Durant has stayed consistent in his stats, the 36-year-old may not be able to carry the load for the team throughout the NBA season.

Durant did not play in the Suns’ 118-114 win over the Denver Nuggets. What he did do this morning was take to X and call the users “dummies” and went on to reply to another when the replies started to hit.
