David Letterman asked Kevin Durant hilariously bizarre questions on Nets media day

I’ve seen a lot of negative takes on David Letterman jumping on a Brooklyn Nets media day call Monday morning to ask Kevin Durant some weird questions.

My response: It’s David Letterman! A comedic legend! Did we all forget that? Let him ask some bizarre questions to KD, including, “Why do people call you KD?” Letterman even got Durant to crack when talking about how weird it is to play at team called the Pelicans.

So here it is: A bit between “Dave from Basketball Digest” and KD. I got a chuckle out of it and I hope you do too:

David Letterman just asked Kevin Durant why he’s called KD, what % he’s going to give on the floor, whether he’d play for the Knicks on days that he’s not playing for the Nets, and whether playing against the Pelicans would make him giggle.

KD: “Y’all just let anyone in here.”

UPDATE:

Some back story on the KD-Letterman back and forth, Kevin Durant is going to be a guest on David Letterman’s Netflix show coming out soon, per @RyanRuocco.
