Cause Nicknames help sell shoes, jerseys etc..... And just make the game more fun overall for the media. They're fans just like us

Plus it's like an NBA tradition for its superstars to have nicknames. I'd say Durant out grew the simple KD nickname

durantula

It's Durantula..

I'm feeling the Slim Reaper tho, a nickname is just part of the ascent into transcendence.

Slim Reaper goes hard though. I saw Shaq and Kenny taking credit for that one. Jalen was trying for a while to get Iceberg Slim over.

Reddit came up with it first

But I can see why he wouldn't like the name, last night he gave praise to Jesus Christ for his ability and Doris Burke dumb ass started laughing like he was joking. KD doesn't want to be associated with anything connected to the Darkside.

he cant use Durantula for legal reasons.

I'm feeling the Slim Reaper name myself. or just let it go and just call him KD and keep it pushing.

Dudes can have more than one nickname. All I know is Durant only fukks with KD.
