Kevin Durant sent private messages to American actor Michael Rapaport that included homophobic and misogynistic language

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant has apologized for the language he used in a social media exchange with American actor and comedian Michael Rapaport.

Rapaport on Tuesday, March 30 shared images of the private messages sent to him on Twitter and Instagram by Durant which included homophobic and misogynistic language used by the NBA star.

“I’m sorry that people have seen the language I used,” Durant, who has not played in nearly two months due to a hamstring injury, told reporters on Thursday, April 1.

“That is not what I want people to see or hear from me, but hopefully I can move past it and get back out there on the floor.”

Nets coach Steve Nash said the incident had been addressed in a private conversation with Durant. – Rappler.com
