Kevin Durant is no stranger to beefing with fans on social media.

The Suns superstar often indulges in a battle of wits with fans who call him out or question him, and he was at it again this week.

A fan on X tagged the veteran forward in a clip of LeBron James post-game interview following the Lakers win over the Raptors, where he revealed that someone in the crowd kept yelling at him to get one more rebound late in the fourth quarter, seemingly to ensure they won their bet.

After the four-time NBA champion obliged, he pointed at them as a sign of acknowledgment.

The fan who tagged Durant on the video captioned it, KD would tell us to get a job meanwhile Bron Bron knows whats up.

Like James, the Suns superstar obliged, and hilariously responded, GO GET A JOB!!! For the love of god.

While most found Durants response amusing, one fan did not appreciate it and called him out in an explicit rant.

The language seemingly offended the Suns forward, who threatened the fan, writing, [You are] lucky I changed my life.

As much as Durant enjoys arguing with fans, even those who call him out, he draws the line at personal remarks.

Kevin Durant didnt start the beef, but hes ending it Most athletes never respond to fans abusing them on social media, regardless of how much it affects them.

However, the 14-time All-Star not only indulges them but takes pleasure in humiliating those who hurl profanities at him.

When a fan claimed its best not to bet money on Durant and proceeded to call him a b***h, he responded, When another scolded the 36-year-old and claimed that he ought to respect the fans more, he scoffed at the suggestion and responded, Athletes are usually the ones on the receiving end of messages from trolls.

However, Durant has learned that the best way to combat it is to become a troll, and hes doing a stellar job..
