Kevin Durant: NBA Cup is About What Fans Enjoy

NBA star Kevin Durant always has something to say, and recently he shared his thoughts on the NBA Cup in response to a fan’s question on Twitter. Durant didn’t hold back, giving a candid response about the tournament, what changes he would make, and the potential future of the event.

When asked if he was a fan of the tournament, Durant cleverly diverted the question back to the fans, emphasizing that at the end of the day, it’s about what the fans enjoy. He emphasized that as professional athletes, they adapt to any situation, regardless of personal preferences. However, Durant did express his appreciation for the “big [expletive] decal of the trophy” on the Cup courts, while also admitting that he would change the color of the courts based on fan feedback.

Although Durant, who first played in the tournament at age 35 in his 16th season, initially found it “weird,” he has since adjusted to it. With over 40 million viewers tuning in for the group stage this season, a 90% increase from previous years, it’s clear that interest in the NBA Cup is growing. Whether the tournament continues and what changes might be made in the future remain to be seen, but one thing is for sure: the NBA is listening to the fans and their preferences when it comes to this exciting event.
