Case in point: Udonis Haslem’s bold claim on ‘The OG’s Show’ that Duncan Robinson is a superior shooter to Kevin Durant.

Haslem even went so far as to claim that Robinson would outshoot KD in a competition. For context, Robinson is averaging 13.7 PPG this season on .458%, while Durant boasts an impressive 29.6 PPG on .531%.”

And that is about all the stats you need to recognize the audacity of this statement. It’s not a knock-on Robinson’s shooting skills, but comparing him to the 13-time All-Star KD is like measuring in light years.

In response to Haslem’s statement, Durant’s teammate Jusuf Nurkic resurfaced one of the best quotes on the internet. Which is, his “That brotha needs some help,” comment that was directed towards Draymond Green after Green swatted at Nurkic around a month ago.
