Durant: I 'liked' comment calling Westbrook 'the problem' in OKC by accident

Oh boy.

Kevin Durant got himself into trouble over his social media activity once again Monday. The Golden State Warriors star "liked" an Instagram comment under a repost of the following graphic Monday afternoon.

Instagram user "xavier21phoenix" wrote:

I'm not complaining. I never had any issues with KD leaving OKC like most people do. It's his career, his life. He has the right to go wherever he so chooses. KD lost interest in playing with OKC because he finally realized that they weren't going to win with the subpar squad they had. So he chose to sign with a team that he knew he'd win a ring with. Nothing wrong with that, but clearly, loyalty didn't matter as much to him as winning did. Which is my point.

Another user, "bayshero" replied:

"subpar" lmfao the problem was westbrook. They had a good ass team.

Durant then "liked" the comment about his former Oklahoma City Thunder co-star, Russell Westbrook, and later undid that action.

Durant then told ESPN's Chris Haynes he inadvertently "liked" the comment as he scrolled through his timeline.

"No story here," he said.

Last September, the 2017 Finals MVP was caught criticizing his former team and defending himself on Twitter while writing in third person, leading many to believe he forgot to switch to a burner account. He owned up to the mistake and apologized.

The Warriors have a day off and can close out their first-round series against the San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday in Oakland.
