Kevin Durant rapping with Stalley in music video
Kevin Durant is now a certified hyphenate celeb — athlete-rapper, that is — and the title comes courtesy of his collab with Stalley on a track called “Scared Money.” Stalley tells TMZ Hip Hop … he and KD shot the video a couple of weeks ago in NYC … a full circle moment after recording the track last summer.

The NBA relies on its stars more than any other sport & has leaned upon LeBron, KD & Steph for nearly a decade, still waiting for the next crop of American stars to replace them. “If they can figure it out, good luck. You got to remove them off the throne” wapo.st/3OKV29J – 10:31 AM

LeBron James, Kevin Durant & Stephen Curry each visited the East Coast in early February, so I asked these late 30-somethings how they’ve handled the responsibility of NBA superstardom for so long & continue to stubbornly go extra rounds with Father Time. wapo.st/3OKV29J – 7:15 AM

The Warriors record for points in the first half came, fittingly, with Curry, Thompson and Durant.
Oct. 29, 2018: Warriors put up 9⃣2⃣ at CHI.
Klay had 36 at half (same game he made 14 threes). Alfonzo McKinnie had 14 in his hometown. Curry had 23. GSW led by 42 at the break – 10:20 PM

More on this storyline
𝘚𝘵𝘶𝘯𝘯𝘢☆: Woke up to a Kevin Durant banger what can’t he do man 😮💨🔥 #Goat -via Twitter / February 16, 2024
The Golden State Warriors checked in on LeBron James at the trade deadline. No deal came to fruition, but it’s notable that Golden State is interested in a potential blockbuster addition to complement Stephen Curry. According to Anthony Slater on 95.7 The Game, the Warriors want a “legitimate star wing” next to their two-time MVP. “If [LeBron James] has wandering eyes in the summer, or if Kevin Durant does or if Paul George is going to be a free agent at this point… the Warriors will be in on that conversation because I think they want a legitimate star wing next to Steph Curry.” -via FanSided / February 15, 2024
“[Durant] for sure looks around,” said the second Eastern Conference exec. “Durant always has a wandering eye.” And if Durant left, the GM said, Booker would have to consider his options, too. -via The Ringer / February 15, 2024
