Kevin Durant was born in the 1980s, and that has never been more apparent to him than it was this week.

The Brooklyn Nets star forward debuted on TikTok over the weekend after previously not having an account on the social platform. Durant’s first post showed him in a hoodie staring into the camera for several seconds. He then looked off-screen and said in a deadpan voice, “Bruh, how I work this s—?”

Here is the hilarious video from Durant’s new TikTok profile @2way3level.

Don’t know if he understands the app just yet.

That is about the most that we have heard from Durant in the last several weeks. After formally requesting a trade from the Nets last month, the ex-MVP has reportedly gone radio silent, even with his NBA peers.

Durant is far from alone though when it comes to struggling to understand Gen Z trends. At least his TiKTok debut was nowhere near as cringeworthy as this fellow sports figure’s was.
