Kevin Durant, Justin Anderson resolve issue after game

Kevin Durant was ejected During Game 4 of the Thunder’s win over the Mavericks Saturday night when he nailed Dallas guard Justin Anderson in the head. While it was a very hard foul that was deemed a flagrant-2, Anderson says there are no hard feelings.

According to Clarence Hill of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Durant texted Anderson immediately after the game. The two were later spotted shaking hands.

The officiating crew thought the foul was intentional, but Anderson was kind enough to give Durant the benefit of the doubt.

Just talked to Justin Anderson. He said he talked to Kevin Durant. He said they are good. Doesn't believe foul was intentional

For what it’s worth, Durant has displayed a pattern of physical play during Oklahoma City’s series against the Mavericks. He also hit Salah Mejiri with an elbow in Game 3. You can see videos of both of the plays here.

Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle thinks the Thunder have been playing dirty. It’s nice to see Anderson take the high road, but he might change his mind after watching the replay of Durant fouling him.
