KD was out of the league with an injury this year but understands why some players were tempted to break bubble protocol
,” Durant said, “It was like the maids were all men… everybody… it was nothing but men around.”
House departed the bubble as the Houston Rockets continued in the second round of the NBA playoffs against Los Angeles. The Lakers eventually won the best-of-seven series.
“After a couple months, you down 3-1?” Durant expressed. “Nah. He said ‘I don’t give a f— no more man.'”
According to USA Today Sports, Durant’s timeline was slightly off. The Rockets were down 3-1 to the Los Angeles Lakers at the time of the NBA’s discipline, but the second-round series was tied 1-1, when the incident took place.
Budden, the rapper turned podcast host who brought up the topic, told Durant he feels the current restrictions in the NBA might be a little harder for guys who have been in the league for a while.
“You know how I view the league now that you said that,” Budden said “Some of the grown players that’s been around for a lil’ bit… I see them focused on maybe getting some ass… when times get hard.”
Budden when on to say “The younger generation, I just see them locking in on the Fortnite.”
Durant agreed with Budden about the popularity of the video game among younger players but disagreed that it was an adequate substitute for sex.
“Nah bro… they still men at the end of the day… they want some action too,” Durant said. “But they are into Fornite as well.”
House, a Texas native, is reportedly married to Whitney Grant, a former Texas State University volleyball player. The couple has three children together. Their youngest, Brady is named after NFL quarterback Tom Brady.
Grant made her Instagram page private. Her bio now reads: “Never substitute pleasures for principles.”
House has limited comments on his page since his return from Orlando but posted a smiling pic earlier this week.
