Kevin Durant urges NBA to end its ban on marijuana
Nets star is an investor in two marijuana companies.
In an interview on Showtime’s All The Smoke, Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant has urged the NBA to end its ban on marijuana.
"It’s one of those plants that’s an acquired taste. If you love it, you love it. If you don’t, you’re not even going to be pick it up. It shouldn’t even be a discussion these days," Durant said. "It’s just like, marijuana is marijuana. It’s not harmful to anybody. It can only help and enhance and do good things. I feel like it shouldn’t even be a huge topic around it anymore."
"Everybody on my team drinks coffee every day. Taking caffeine every day. Or guys go out to have wine after games or have a little drink here and there. Marijuana should be in that tone," he added. "Why are we even talking about? It shouldn’t even be a conversation now. So hopefully we can get past that and the stigma around it and know that it does nothing but make people have a good time, make people hungry, bring people together — that plant brings us all together."
