Kevin Durant put the Golden State Warriors on his back and almost single-handedly led them to a win in Game 3, but that did not stop Cleveland Cavaliers fans from letting him hear it after the game.
Durant is no stranger to being heckled, but one comment in particular that a fan made outside the team hotel on Thursday night seemed to really get under his skin. As TMZ notes, it sounds like the fan shouted “KD, UT’s butt!” It was seemingly an insult directed toward Durant’s alma mater, the University of Texas. Watch how Durant reacted:

If you saw the shot Durant made on Thursday night to ice Game 3, you’re probably wondering why Cavs fans would even have the nerve to heckle him. K.D. finished the game with a playoff career-high 45 points on 15-of-23 shooting. His performance is a big reason why Cleveland is on the verge of being swept.
