Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant is not a liked man outside of Northern California. For whatever reason, wherever he goes, the former MVP is booed and told just how disliked he is.
Preparing to play in the All-Star Game on Sunday, Durant was shown just how the people of New Orleans feel about his presence when he was introduced prior to practice for the Western Conference on Saturday.

In case it was lost in all the booing, Durant was one of five consecutive members of the Warriors introduced at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans. He also received the most negative reaction of the bunch.
Prior to being introduced, Durant was seen heading to the court. And yes, it’s still obvious that he and Russell Westbrook are not on speaking terms.

Sunday’s All-Star Game should be fun.
