Golden State Warriors star Kevin Durant frequently responds to fan criticism on social media, so it's probably for the best he read one particularly egregious tweet in a controlled setting with other people around.
After Game 1 of the NBA Finals Thursday night, ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" aired another version of its infamous "Mean Tweets" segment with Durant serving as the opening act.
Among other things, Durant was called "twig boy" and a "candy a—."
"That's a lot," Durant said with a smile after reading the tweet.
