Kevin Durant is undoubtedly the franchise leader of the Brooklyn Nets. It is at his discretion that the franchise decides whether or not to trade a player. So a healthy relationship with him arguably ensures a stable future for any member of the Brooklyn Nets.
As the leader, it is his responsibility to ensure that every player on the team understands their role and feels included. Therefore, in the spirit of healthy competition, he often engages with his teammates in friendly banter.
Little did he know that Cameron Thomas, a rookie out of Louisiana State, would have an equally hilarious response to his antics.
