Kevin Durant and Draymond Green are friends off the court, but they didn't appear to be very friendly toward each other after the Golden State Warriors' 113-112 win over the Phoenix Suns on Saturday night.
Green disrupted the final play of the game when Durant attempted to get a shot off on an inbounds pass with 0.6 seconds left to seal the win.
The outspoken Warriors forward followed it up by appearing to shout "this is my house and "get out of here" in Durant's direction as the Suns star was walking off the court.
Speaking to reporters in the locker room after the game, Durant said it was "easy" for Green to look good in that situation because it's "tough to get anything off" with 0.6 seconds left on the clock.

The Warriors did a great job on the final play. Durant and Devin Booker were in the same vicinity, but Booker was moving away from Grayson Allen on the inbounds pass with Andrew Wiggins right in front of him.
Allen opted to throw it into Durant as he was trying to get loose from Green and move toward the basket, but Allen was also getting close to a five-second violation and had to rush his pass in because the Suns didn't have any timeouts left.
Durant did struggle against the Warriors defense, with Green being the one primarily matched up against him. He finished with 24 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists, but he only went 10-of-25 from the field (2-of-8 from three-point range) and committed six turnovers.
That final play was set up after Stephen Curry gave the Warriors the lead with a three-pointer. He is 20-of-32 from behind the arc in his past two games after scoring just nine points against the Indiana Pacers on Feb. 7.
Golden State has clawed its way back to .500 at 25-25 thanks to its current four-game winning streak. The loss snapped Phoenix's three-game winning streak.
