Kevin Durant took to his Instagram account after the rosters for this year’s All-Star game were announced to have a little fun with the selections and issue a warning of sorts to teammate Steph Curry.
LeBron James and Curry drafted their respective rosters on Thursday from the players available. Below are the choices made by both captains.

Durant later posted an image to his Instagram account of himself wearing a white shirt with James’ picture on the front. Next to it, Durant added the words “#1 pick. Well atleast my ego thinks so. I’m coming for you Stephen.” At the bottom is “My Next Chapter” along with January 25, 2018.

Curry and Durant are teammates on the Warriors, of course. However, on Febr. 18, they will be opponents during the NBA’s talent showcase. All-Star games are generally good for providing a few fun and lighthearted moments. We can probably expect one between Curry and Durant, as KD tries to prove he can be a leader too.
