Kevin Durant Finally Unveils His Love-Hate Relationship With French Players That Triggered His Trash Talking vs Knicks’ Evan Fournier

Kevin Durant loves to talk trash, and he has the game to back it up. He is not shy about letting people hear it. Be it a fan or player, Durant doesn’t back down. If you ever talk trash to KD, he will come at you with all his might. Recently, it was the French player Evan Fournier, who was at the receiving end.

Durant has had a special affliction towards French players, especially after the Olympics loss. The French players went at Team USA and this was in the back of his mind. And in the Olympic finals, he showed them why it’s wrong to talk trash to KD. Durant led Team USA to victory and clinched his third gold medal in a row. Interestingly, Durant still makes sure he torches them every time they meet in the NBA.
