Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant took to Instagram to defend former teammate Patrick McCaw following a report from The Athletic that alleged McCaw became unhappy after the team signed guard Nick Young prior to the 2017-2018 season.

According to The Athletic, the now-departed McCaw's "first grievance" with the Warriors was the team's decision to sign the mercurial Young, also known as Swaggy P (or more recently, Swag Champ), to compete with McCaw to be the team's backup shooting guard.
