Suns forward Kevin Durant criticized The Skip Bayless Show after host Skip Bayless commented, “The more I watch him at age 36, the more he [KD] seems mentally semi-retired to me.”

Durant responded on X, formerly known as Twitter, stating that they are “both washed; it was a great run,” while tagging Bayless’ account.

During the Suns’ win over the Mavericks, Durant played 38 minutes and had 21 points, nine rebounds and eight assists.
