Did Kevin Durant accidentally tell us something about Russell Westbrook on Instagram?


Kevin Durant, who once told us what he really thought about Billy Donovan and his former team in a tweet that everyone assumed was supposed to be from a burner account (though Durant denied having one of those), had another awkward moment on Instagram this week:

In a post on a Giannis Antetokounmpo re-posting a quote about advice Durant gave to the Bucks star, one user (who has since changed his Instagram account description to 'Kevin Durant's burner account' wrote that the Thunder's "problem was Westbrook. They had a good (expletive) team."

Durant liked the post, according to screenshots, which we're sure he meant to do from a burner account that doesn't exist.

A couple of things here:

1. Look, when you're scrolling through Instagram it's actually very easy to like a post you didn't mean to like. Update: Which was what Durant said happened.

2. However, who goes through comments of a Giannis fan account?

3. Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook will deny this is a thing and insist they're totally cool and are just former co-workers no matter how many times Durant slips up on social media.
