Throughout his career, Kevin Durant has developed a reputation of taking to social media to engage in debates with fans.

The Phoenix Suns superstar now appears to have his sights set on a new social media platform — Threads. 

Instagram's parent company, Meta, recently launched the social platform. It quickly gained popularity with approximately 30 million users having signed up for the app as of Thursday morning, according to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg.

In many respects, Threads functions similarly to Twitter. Durant has frequently used Twitter to push back against fans and even trolls who criticize him.

At one point, he seemingly used a burner account to defend himself.

On Thursday, Durant appeared to jokingly invite fans to follow him "on threads with the burner."

"On threads with the burner. Come find me," Durant wrote.

Durant did not seem serious. And, given his track record, it would not be far-fetched to believe he at least considered creating a burner account.

Late last month, the 13-time All-Star could not resist the urge to jump into a Twitter Spaces discussion, "Kevin Durant is not top 5."
