Knicks announce Kevin Durant worst nightmare and his resignation immediately….
Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant recently unleashed a fiery tirade on New York Knicks guard Quentin Grimes, following a 17-point loss to the Knicks. Grimes had 12 points and three 3-pointers in the game. The loss was frustrating for the Suns, as Bradley Beal, who just returned from injury, got reinjured in the first quarter.
However, it was Grimes who bore the brunt of Kevin Durant’s rant.
(The) shooters, get up into ’em, make ’em dribble. Like, what’s his name, Quentin Grimes, he can’t get six 3s up. He doesn’t dribble at all,” Durant continued, “He doesn’t have any free throws on the season, he doesn’t have any assists it feels like but he’s getting 3s up? That’s the stuff we can’t have. It’s frustrating but I think we’ll figure it out.”
While some may argue that there was a slight shade in the way Durant delivered his message, the point he made was undeniable: the Suns’ effort in containing New York was lackluster.
The Knicks shot 17-for-29 (58.6%) from 3-point range in their 139-122 win. Jalen Brunson led the team with 50 points and was a perfect 9-for-9 from downtown.
The Suns were 11-for-28 from distance. Kevin Durant and Devin Booker had 29 and 28, respectively.
