“Put a big toe in them Mfers”: Kevin Durant hilariously mocks Anthony Edwards on Twitter

Apart from being one of the best scorers of his generation, Kevin Durant is most known for his social media activity. The Phoenix Suns star recently set his sights on one of the top young players in the league.

Minnesota Timberwolves All-Star Anthony Edwards is getting ready for the release of his first signture shoe. When asked what player in the league he'd like to see wear his sneakers, the former No. 1 pick picked Durant.

After the clip went around on social media, Durant responded. The Phoenix Suns star let Edwards know that he would never get his wish, as he won't ever put a toe in an Adidas shoe let alone his entire foot.

Following this post, Adidas had their own response to Kevin Durant saying he'd never wear their shoe.

The main reason why Durant will never be seen in Edward's shoes is because of what he had said to begin with. As a Nike athlete, he doesn't want to be seen on an NBA court wearing Adidas.

How long has Kevin Durant been with Nike?

Kevin Durant's journey with Nike started way back in 2007. On entering the NBA in 2007, the future MVP inked a deal with the iconic shoe brand.

Over the past 15 years, Durant and Nike have had great success together. Things have gone so well that KD has joined exclusive company in their ranks. During the summer, the two sides agreed a lifetime deal.

Before Durant, only two people were offered lifetime deals with Nike: Michael Jordan and LA Lakers star LeBron James.

Since being with Nike, Durant has built a vast line of signature shoes. This season, they released the 16th addition of his sneaker line, one for every year that Durant has been in the league.

As Durant has a lifetime deal with Nike, Anthony Edwards is going to be waiting a long time to see Durant in his shoes. It's no disrespect to the rising superstar, just part of the battle that's the sneaker business.

Part of why Nike gave Durant a lifetime deal is because he continues to show why he's an all-time great. At the age of 35, he's still one of the top players in the league. Through 16 games, he's averaging 31.3 points, 6.9 rebounds and 5.5 assists. Only Joel Embiid has scored more per outing.

As for the Suns, they're fifth in the Western Conference with an 11-7 record.
