At least he admitted it. THE Kevin Durant in an interview with an American Media, he emphasized that he is responsible which his team will not hit the floor on Christmas Day.
It is a tradition for the NBA on Christmas Day to put on games that will either be competitive or have the most brilliant talents in the league. However, this year two of the best players will be absent, the reason of course for Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving with the fault being the former’s. Because, last summer he demanded from the management of the Nets to give him in an exchange, as a result the NBA without knowing where “KD” will end up did not include the team from Brooklyn in the Christmas program.
“It’s my fault we don’t play at Christmas because of what happened over the summer. The Nets-Knicks would be a very interesting matchup, I hope it happens next year“, said the former MVP.
In the 10 Christmas games that the 33-year-old superstar has played, he is averaging 29.9 points, 7.4 rebounds and 4.6 assists while shooting 52% from the field.
