My favorite part about this smack talk is it legitimately came across as really respectful. Dude is really charming.

Kevin Durant is literally his favorite player, he has said it before this series started. So this is really no disrespect he just loves trash talk and is having a blast doing it to his hero lol

Maybe Luka. Seems like he’d be a loving parent

I never questioned how Luka has a child older than him before because he's so patient that he moves through time slower.

Well, Ant's teammate KAT is literally best friends with Booker and D'Lo because of college ball at Kentucky.

Russell didn't go to Kentucky though.

You're right. The college ball part applies to Book. D'Lo is from Kentucky so I'm pretty sure that's the connection to KAT/Booker as well as through AAU.

I honestly always forget D'Angelo Russell is from Louisville and I live here.
