"Catfished Ya for Years": Kevin Durant’s Brother Speaks Out After NBA Veteran Levels Scathing Steve Kerr Accusation Over Jonathan Kuminga

Kevin Durant’s brother, Tony Durant, shared his thoughts on Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr after NBA veterans Theo Pinson and Raymond Felton criticized him.

During Thursday’s episode of Felton’s “To the Baha” podcast, he and his co-hosts criticized Kerr for his treatment of players like Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody.

“I have played for coaches who are like this. When you have something personal towards a player, you can say whatever you want to say in the media, but that s*** shows,” Felton said. “The s*** shows in how you treat them on the court, like that’s what it is. He DNPs Moody and Kuminga, but he doesn’t DNP Podziemski.”

Pinson took it a step further, insinuating that Kerr is racist toward the Black players, citing the difference in treatment between Podziesmki, Kuminga and Moody.

“Let me translate what Ray is saying, he DNPs the n***** and he don’t the white men,” Pinson said.

Tony Durant shared his thoughts on the situation and called Steve Kerr a “catfish” in the comments.

“Steve Kerr catfished ya for years,” Durant wrote.

The Warriors (13-13) find themselves in eighth place in the Western Conference, leading to much pressure on coach Kerr, as fans hope to see the team contend for a championship in Steph Curry’s final years.

Steve Kerr gets candid about his hopes for Jonathan Kuminga

It is no secret that Jonathan Kuminga and Steve Kerr have a strained relationship, leading to a constant question mark on the forward's future with the team.

While Kuminga has the upside to become a valuable player, the Warriors will be willing to move him for the right offer. Kuminga might not be long for Golden State, but Kerr still hopes to see him succeed in the NBA.

“I can imagine it’s not easy for him,” Kerr told reporters on Wednesday. “And we’ve talked about the situation. My desire for JK is to become the best player he can possibly be — regardless of where he ends up, whether it’s here or elsewhere.”

Kuminga has had a turbulent 2025-26 season so far. He started the campaign as one of the team’s starters and has since lost his place in the rotation. He is averaging 12.4 points, 6.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game, shooting 43.8%.
