Kevin Durant and Kendrick Perkins got into a very personal late-night Twitter fight

Kevin Durant always enjoys mixing it up with fans, the media, and even other NBA players on Twitter, including sometimes even from various accounts.

That happened late Thursday night as he and former teammate Kendrick Perkins traded some very personals shots on the popular social media platform that was made for this kind of stuff.

Russell Westbrook made his return to Oklahoma City for the first time as a member of the Rockets on Thursday night and Perkins, who played with the Thunder from 2010-15, tweeted about how he thought Westbrook is the best player to ever play for OKC.

And away we went.

Here’s the whole battle:

Durant then closed things out with a few replies to fans who jumped in:

Perkins has always talked a lot for a guy who averaged just 5.4 points and 5.8 rebounds in his 15-year career. He did get in some good shots on Durant, but come on – a healthy Durant is the best player in the league and has been for a while.

But yeah, this was a very fun Twitter fight to watch unfold on a random Thursday night.
