NEW YORK — Russell Westbrook already had tension with Kevin Durant because of his unexpected free-agency departure from Oklahoma City to Golden State nearly two years ago. Less than a week after that tension thawed during NBA All-Star weekend, Westbrook may have another reason to dislike Durant.
Durant disagreed with Westbrook’s assertion that Warriors center Zaza Pachulia intentionally fell on his legs in the third quarter of the Warriors’ win over the Thunder on Saturday.
“I don’t think Zaza is trying to hurt anybody,” Durant said following practice on Sunday.
