It’s no secret that the Phoenix Suns’ locker room had its own differences. We mean, other than that, not much can explain their terrible 36-46 regular season record and the team missing out on the playoffs. That, too, after possessing the “Big Three” of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal. Relative to experience, it was one of the most disappointing campaigns for the franchise. But no one expected things to go this far. DeMarcus Cousins recently revealed some ugly details about the Phoenix Suns locker room.

On 20th June, Cousins was on the show Run It Back when he reported that there were hands thrown, not once, but at least twice during the regular season. “I don’t want to be the guy to report it, but I definitely heard the negative things in the locker room, it was a couple of fist fights,” Cousins said. “It was a lot going on that obviously carries over to the court.”

This is a huge statement, especially from someone like the former All-NBA selection. The fans went into a frenzy as they were stunned by this revelation. 

Everyone knew that there were communication problems, but fist fights? No one saw that coming. However, while everyone was still trying to wrap their head around this statement by DeMarcus Cousins, Kevin Durant confronted his former teammate.

“I have to contest this 94 footer.” Durant posted on X (formerly Twitter). “This some b—- to throw on us. Yea yea yea we were trash this year ha ha ha but we NEVER got close to this. NEVER.” Durant clearly stated that things never went this far between him and his Phoenix teammates.

Sure enough, there were real problems within the roster, such as a lack of hustle. The Phoenix Suns were a walking disaster last season, but Durant claimed that no fights happened between the players. And he was having none of that, as he claimed that Cousins made baseless allegations about him and his teammates just to gain attention on social media. However, this feud did not end there, as Cousins had more to say to the Slim Reaper and his Arizona teammates.

DeMarcus Cousins leaves Kevin Durant with his latest reply

Ever since his arrival two seasons ago, Kevin Durant’s time in the desert had been nothing short of abysmal. During his first season with the Phoenix Suns, the veteran superstar saw his team get bodied by the Denver Nuggets in the second round. Then, in 2023, Phoenix was eliminated by the Timberwolves. This season, things got even worse as the Suns failed to qualify for the playoffs. While things have worked out, as the 36-year-old veteran would’ve hoped for, he denied the claims of engaging in fights with his teammates.

However, DeMarcus Cousins wasn’t done just yet! He did not shy away from making another huge claim after KD replied to his comments. “The source was one of your teammates, killa.” Cousins replied to KD. “And I wasn’t referring to you! . Save this s— for the others homie…” The former NBA star stated that despite Durant denying these accusations, he did not lie.

That’s because the source of this information, according to Cousins, was one of KD’s teammates, a Suns player!

If that’s the case, Cousins’ allegations about the Suns locker room might be true. Moreover, he also emphasized the fact that his words were not for the Slim Reaper. Instead, they were aimed at the rest of the Phoenix roster, as he warned the veteran superstar for the future. This feud seems to be getting even more feisty after Cousins sent this warning to Durant.

While this reply from the former NBA star seems to have left the Slim Reaper speechless, we don’t think he’ll sit silent for much!
