NBA – “Crazy”: After umpteenth collapse, strong official words from Kevin Durant towards Draymond..(VIDEO)
A privileged witness to Draymond Green’s new slip-up, Kevin Durant had not until now had the opportunity to react to it. This Wednesday, following the announcement of the big man’s suspension and the Suns match, the Slim Reaper ended up giving his opinion.
24. It took 24 games this season for the Suns’ Big Three to finally make their official debut. Detained the day before in the infirmary, Kevin Durant made his return to the courts this Wednesday and was finally able to play there with Bradley Beal and Devin Booker.
This certainly did not allow his team to win against Brooklyn (112-116), but gave rise to some great combinations between the three stars:
KD ➡️ Booker ➡️ Beal ➡️ bucket

KD frightened after Draymond’s bloodbath against the Suns
Certainly regrettable, this defeat against the Nets suffered at home by Phoenix did not take precedence over the events of the franchise’s previous match. And more specifically on the new act of violence by Draymond Green, guilty of a blow to the face of Jusuf Nurkic. A gesture that the NBA did not let pass and which earned the Warriors big man a suspension “until further notice”.
Present on the Suns bench at the time of the events, Durant was therefore invited in recent hours to speak on the subject, which he did without detour:
Duane Rankin: What was your reaction to the clash between Draymond and Nurkic and the fact that Draymond was suspended indefinitely?
Kevin Durant: Yeah, it was crazy to see that. I’m glad Nurk did well. I have never seen something like this happen on a basketball court and in an NBA game before. I hope Draymond gets the help he needs. He has a series of incidents like this. I know him and it’s not… He wasn’t like that when I played with him and when he came into the league.
So I hope he gets the help he needs to be able to get back on the floor and put all this behind him.
Like Nurkic, who took the opportunity to make fun of Rudy Gobert, KD wants above all that his former partner in Golden State receives support following his escapades. What the league and the Dubs intend to offer it seems to the principal concerned.
In shock after Draymond Green’s loss of composure against the Suns, Kevin Durant admits not having recognized the man with whom he wore the colors of the Warriors for three seasons. He therefore hopes that the interior will benefit from the appropriate help.
