I know most people will believe unnamed sources over me but if it’s anyone out there that’ll listen, I don’t plan on retiring anytime soon. Shit is comical at this point.

Poor Kevin Durant. He just had to hop on Twitter and bat down the salacious report he is going to retire rather than play for the Nets again.
Only no one ever said that. Longtime NBA reporter Marc Stein’s deeply-reported piece on his Substack merely included an anecdote about a league executive who expressed a belief Durant was more likely to retire than stay in Brooklyn.
