The fine comes after a fan shared a video of Durant walking up to a fan and telling him to, “watch the f*cking game and shut the f*ck up.”

Inappropriate indeed, but what do you expect from the Cupcake? There’s no way he can just ignore it. He can’t help but respond to criticism on social media, so you know he can’t handle any kind of heckling.
The fine is just the latest in a long line of issues that have hit the Warriors in past couple of weeks.
