It turns out there may have been a reason that Kevin Durant wasn't included in Nike's initial "Winning Isn't for Everyone" advertisement it launched ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Durant turned some heads when he wasn't in the commercial and responded by asking Nike on Instagram Stories, "Am I a bad person?"

Well, Nike had its answer after he broke Lisa Leslie's all-time scoring record in United States Olympic basketball history:

Durant entered Tuesday's quarterfinals matchup against Brazil just six points behind Leslie's mark of 488 career Olympic points.
