The NBA world went into a frenzy on Sunday when news broke that 15-time All-Star Kevin Durant was traded to the Houston Rockets from the Phoenix Suns. Many were surprised to learn that a trade had occurred this quickly, especially given that Game 7 of the NBA Finals was hours away.
Nonetheless, Durant got what he wanted, and he happened to find out while at Fanatics Fest in New York City. Durant initially learned about the news while on stage with NBA reporter Taylor Rooks, but after the news had somewhat simmered, he publicly spoke on the trade with sportscaster and television personality Kay Adams.
In the three-minute interview, Durant was as blunt as one can be after being traded.
