It didn't take long for Phoenix Suns superstar Kevin Durant to break the silence on trade rumors surrounding his name.
On Tuesday evening, the media exploded with possible trades of Durant joining the Houston Rockets in a win-now move. The Suns superstar replied to a fan, who stated, "KD so sorry. look at what his reputation is now lol," less than an hour after the speculation surfaced.
Durant replied, "Well check ball then." The post went viral in a matter of minutes, amassing more than one million views. Fans clowned the original post in the comments, praising the forward for not being afraid to speak his mind. The reports were seemingly put to rest shortly after by ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, who shares the Rockets plan to head in a different direction.

The Rockets acquiring Durant would make them competitive in the West but would not vault them among championship favorites.
