During a recent episode of his The ETCs podcast, Durant spoke about Charania, convinced that the latter is indeed an agent from the Central Intelligence Agency. Durant spoke from personal experience, confused by the whole ordeal. "Shams is a creep, yo!" Durant says, adding that no one ever knows where he is, especially since one can wear a mask now.

As per Durant, one won't know even if Charania is outside their house. "I don’t know how he gets this info, but he, I mean, he said I was in the car with no mask and we went back-and-forth, back-and-forth, and I was like, sh**". Durant spoke about Charania being some kind of agent who has some gadgets up his sleeve. "His basement is full of sh*t. This man is locked in, with all respect".

Durant, currently playing his 13th season, is averaging 29.5 points, 7.4 rebounds and 5.2 assists.
