Atlanta Hawks fans hit Kevin Durant where they knew it would hurt Friday.
During the Hawks’ game against Durant and the Brooklyn Nets, the Atlanta fans hit Durant with a savage chant while he shot free throws. What was the chant? “You need lotion.”

The chant is a funny reference to the recent photo of Durant’s extremely dry legs. The former MVP was roasted for the viral picture and hit back with a vulgar response, indicating that it got under his skin a bit (no pun intended).
Hawks fans get extra points too for coming up with the perfect four-syllable dig for an in-arena chant. Granted, the Nets defeated the Hawks 113-105 as Durant finished with 31 points, five rebounds, and six assists. He would probably rather be an ashy winner than a moisturized loser any day.
