We all know Kevin Durant is an emotional player who isn’t scared of anyone, and that includes the great Bam Adebayo. Tempers flared during a Team USA practice at Tokyo Olympics when Kevin Durant tried to fight Bam Adebayo for doing something that really ticked him off.

In the footage below you will see that Bam Adebayo didn’t pass the ball back to Kevin Durant after he made a shot. This broke an unwritten rule that everyone knows you have to follow in the basketball world. Give the ball back to the man who just made the shot. The situation got tense when Kevin Durant got in Bam Adebayo’s face and let him know what was what.
