Kevin Durant’s burner account controversy has been the talk of the town in the NBA world, and several fans and analysts have divided opinions on the matter. Recently, Gilbert Arenas and his crew discussed the controversy and Jabari Smith Jr.’s involvement.
Smith Jr.’s name on KD’s burner account updates was shocking, as fans and analysts wonder how the locker room scenario will play out. Former NBA player Rashad McCants revealed that he had a conversation with a Houston Rockets insider who shared behind-the-scenes updates on Smith Jr.
McCants said:
“Insider Rockets sh*t that Jabari don’t be getting the plays and understanding certain sh*t that be going on. I heard this and then its in the tweets… That means KD had heard this, if he was the one doing this, aint no fan hearing that.”
There is still no confirmation on the authenticity of the posts that went viral on social media, linked to KD. However, fans have taken this seriously as the screenshots mentioned several former and current teammates of Durant.
Some fans even made a website database that included all updates and screenshots related to these burner accounts.
