It’s the summer time, and the big free agency names have already figured out which uniform they’ll be rocking next season. There was no bigger name than Kevin Durant during the first week of free agency, and his decision to join the 73-win Warriors is still reverberating across the landscape of the league. One consequence was a little dig by Enes Kanter as he was joking on Twitter with ‘Stache Bro, Steven Adams.
It seems Kanter was trying to reconcile with his former ‘Stache bro by re-growing his mustache, which he shaved after the season ended.
Hey @RealStevenAdams
I'm baaack booyyy

Adams wasn’t having it:
You think you can just come and go as you please!!! This ain't a game! Besides I've already found someone else π€ https://t.co/PSxjPHePZ0

But then Kanter, as a rebuttal, decided to take a shot at Kevin Durant.
Noooooo π
Don't betray me like someone just did that to us ππhttps://t.co/bm1XNJpnaw— Enes FREEDOM (@EnesFreedom) July 10, 2016
That’s too bad. The Stache Bros are real, and Durant was a low-key part of their bosom buddy routine.
As an April Fools joke, KD surprised his two big men by showing up with his own mustache during an interview with Anthony Slater of the The Oklahoman.
And, yes, our interview was interrupted by the third (step) Stache Bro, Kevin Durant (via @NewsOKPhoto): pic.twitter.com/NEt8u81qnX

This makes us sad. Look at how happy they all look together! Avert your eyes, Thunder fans. It’s too soon to re-live these little vignettes from KD’s time with the team.
Except, maybe KD still has a Stache Bro tee somewhere in his closet. Maybe he’s just saving it for a possible return…
