Kevin Durant Wants a Piece of Your Gambling Winnings....If You Keep Blaming Him for Your Losses
Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant is growing tired of gamblers blaming him when his team loses or fails to cover.
He lashed out on Monday via Twitter.
"When I get ya paid, u don’t DM me and send a small percentage to my cashapp but when them parlays don’t hit, I’m every name in the book. Yall ain’t real."
Despite winning their last four games coming into Wednesday night, the Suns failed to cover in a back-to-back series versus the Utah Jazz.
Those on Twitter - perhaps disenfranchised gamblers - were quick to pile on Durant over this tweet.
"The fans are the reason you make 50 mil a year."
"I’m not the one making $49m a year."
"Maybe if your DM’s were on we would."
Individual player props involving Durant are also losing for some sports bettors it appears.
One tweeted:
"Why u lose my u7.5 rebounds bet yesterday big bro. Next time end the game in regulation."
Then there was THIS:
Others were asking for his CashApp, presumably because they did indeed win their bets involving either the Suns or Durant.
Most of the responses went something like this, however:
"I speak for everyone when I say that gambling is ruining sports."
His team was slated to host Golden State Wednesday night.
Individuals could still win with Durant even if he plays poorly. For example, one can bet the UNDER 31.5 number of points Durant scores versus the Warriors Wednesday night.
