VIDEO: Durant on meeting Curry as 10-year-old: 'I thought he was white ... this yellow kid'

Kevin Durant and Steph Curry have known each other since being AAU opponents when they were 10 years old. That story is much funnier when Durant tells it.

As part of NBA2K Uncensored promotional interviews, Durant, Curry, James Harden and Anthony Davis were asked when they first came across each other as competitors. Durant details going to Charlotte as a 10-year-old and meeting Curry for the first time:

Curry's dad, Dell, was an NBA player at the time, so the other kids surely knew who "this yellow kid" was in short order.

Of course, the point of this video isn't Durant's misclassification of a young Curry, it's the priceless reactions of Curry and Harden. Try and watch the Warriors guard nearly laugh himself off his stool without laughing yourself.
