Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant is currently feuding with rapper The Game over an alleged $20,000 bet.
Durant allegedly said he would donate the money to The Game’s youth basketball team if The Game hit an NBA three while at an event with other NBA stars and rappers.
When Durant didn’t honor the alleged bet, The Game posted a video of himself making the NBA three-pointer with the caption:

TMZ caught up to Durant while he was working out in Los Angeles Tuesday and asked him about the bet and The Game’s Instagram post. Durant said the claims were “false” and said the rapper was “lying.”
After seeing the TMZ footage, The Game took to his Instagram account again and posted a screen shot of the TMZ article along with the caption:
Now why @easymoneysniper frontin on the kids homie ?!?!?!? We clearly said….. “If I made the 3 from NBA range you’d supply the entire @froggallstars program with brand new Kevin Durant shoes”…… 120 kids, close to $200 a shoe equals about $20,000….. How am I lying ???? Just say you a sore loser & you ain’t wanna help the kids…. It ain’t that they need it cause I bought all 120 kids Lebrons out my own pocket as you can see on their Instagram.. But I thought it would be kool for them to meet you & be able to ball in your shoes especially since they look up to you & I made the shot as WE AGREED… @champagnepapi was right there, so was @jharden13 @trim_skit & @Demar_Derozan But don’t sweat it champ, we’ll still support you & I’ll go buy them myself just cause they mean that much to me….. 1 love – The Game #FroggAllstars #NikeBasketball #iGotTheKids #itsTooHardForSomePeopleToKeepIt100 #MyOldestSonsFavoritePlayer #WhyWouldILieAboutSomethingThatsForTheKids #WhatDidiHaveToGain #PeopleHeardWhatWasSaid #AintImportantTho #NoLoveLost #illTellThemTheShoesCameFromYouAnyway #TheyWontKnowTheDifference #SadThingIsTheyreYourShoesAndItWouldntveCostYouADimeToGetThemForTheKids @TMZ
