Kendrick Perkins and Kevin Durant were once teammates with the Oklahoma City Thunder, but that hasn’t stopped Perkins from calling out the two-time NBA Finals MVP.
Durant has been working out this offseason with Orlando Magic star Palo Banehcero, and Perkins called Durant out for that during an episode of “NBA Today” on Tuesday.
“I’ve been seeing a video that’s been circulating of KD working out with Paolo Banchero and I appreciate the mentorship. But that’s mentorship needs to be going at the guys he’s actually going to be on the floor with this upcoming season. I wanna see videos of KD in the lab with Jabari Smith, I wanna see videos of Sengun and Kevin Durant working out,” Perkins said.
Here’s the video from their workout together.
Durant’s first season with the Rockets was a mixed bag. He came to Houston as part of a massive 7-team trade involving the Phoenix Suns, Atlanta Hawks, Brooklyn Nets, Los Angeles Lakers, Minnesota Timberwolves and Golden State Warriors.
The Rockets lost in the first round of the playoffs in four games to the Lakers as Durant dealt with an injury.
Perkins is hoping to see Durant work out with some of his Houston Rockets teammates instead of a star from another team. However, it is normal for NBA players to work out with others during the offseason. .
