[Saba Sports News] Kevin Durant recently became a highlight for Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards, as he was dunked on during a Team USA scrimmage for the 2024 Paris Olympics. The image of Edwards’ dunk over Durant quickly went viral on social media.
Durant responded to the moment with humor by reposting the photo along with the caption: “I tried Jennifer.” This was a humorous reference to a viral interaction from 2018 when CJ McCollum responded to a fan named Jennifer, who mocked him for not having postseason success.
While Durant’s attempt to block Edwards might have been ambitious, Edwards’ athleticism makes him a constant threat for such plays. Despite Durant’s near 7-foot stature, he was no match for Edwards on that play.
Edwards, known for his impressive dunks, had previously dunked on Durant during the 2023-24 NBA season, adding to his collection of memorable plays. Remarkably, Durant was even nursing a calf injury at the time, making his effort to contest the dunk commendable.
