PHOENIX — With the Olympics largely behind us, the NBA season is just around the corner – and Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant continues to tour the world in the form of various media appearances.
This morning, Durant took to FanDuel personality Kay Adams’ morning show, “Up & Adams,” to discuss a variety of topics, especially football, as the NFL season has just begun.
Adams asked Durant a particularly tantalizing question about which NFL team he would eliminate if he had the power.

“The Cowboys easily… I just don’t like them… and I think it’s because a lot of people from my home in DC have become Cowboys fans,” Durant added.
This would make sense, since Durant is a long-time avowed Washington Commanders fan, while having shown love for the local Arizona Cardinals in the past.
Interestingly, he showed no dislike for the Commanders’ other rivals, the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants – but it seems common to dislike Dallas-based teams these days – especially among Phoenix fans.
The Commanders don’t play the Cowboys until Nov. 24, so it’ll be a while before Durant sees his team get a chance to upset the only team he doesn’t like in the league.
Durant also announced a partnership between FanDuel and his media company, Boardroom. He is expected to make weekly appearances on the show, which he appeared on today.
While he continues to receive good PR off the court, he has a chance to change the narrative on the court starting Oct. 6, when the Suns begin the preseason against the Los Angeles Lakers.
