KD says Waiters “knows” it’s his fault for not getting a bigger payday.
Durant believes his former teammate could have had his breakout much sooner.
Per The Ringer:
Are you ready to play in a league where Dion Waiters has a $52 million contract?
Durant: “Hell yeah. He should have got more. … But he knows that his fault.”He knows, why?
Durant: “He could have got more. He fucked around.”You thought he waited too long?
Durant: “Nah, nah, he’s supposed to be better. He know that. He waited too long to do what he’s doing in Miami I think.”
