Draymond Green has a no holds barred review on the ashy ankles of Kevin Durant.

Green and Durant go back a long way. The duo won two championships together, having a few rifts on the way as well. However, the two All-Stars seemed to have sorted their issues. Thus it was a matter of time before Green reacted to the dry skin on the ankles of KD.

“I said, ‘What the f**k’ and I clicked on the link that Bam sent me,” Green said. “That wasn’t even ash. That was f**king scales. It looked like you could go skin him like an alligator and take it to the store and sell it. That’s how bad it was.”

Green wasn’t done yet, the three-time champion had some financial advice for Durant’s manager. Green stated that Rich Kleiman should capitalize on the situation and sign an endorsement deal with a lotion cream brand.

“To my brother Rich Kleiman, pick the lotion brand that y’all want to endorse and go partner with them,” Green said. “Because that’ll be an incredible story if Kevin just comes out the next game incredibly lotioned with skin looking impeccable. I’d love to see it.”

There are only a few people in the world that can talk smack to KD and getaway, with Green being one of them. It is no hidden secret that the Warriors forward doesn’t mince his words and can be brutally honest at times.
