50 Cent has jokes today at the expense of Kevin Durant and Carmelo Anthony. More specifically, the jokes are on their footwear, which were some polo shoes the players were wearing for a photo shoot earlier this week with Team USA. “What the fuck is it with these shoes man Damn. We ain’t gotta go out like that, they got MELO and KD in them shits wit No socks SMH”, 50 typed on Instagram while I’m assuming laughing at the same time. Of course he made sure to throw in an Effen Vodka shoutout at the end. Fif is right to have jokes in this case as the guys will likely never be wearing the shoes again. Check the gallery!

As you know, Westbrook signed a big extension to stay with the Thunder yesterday but KD wanted no parts of reaching out to his former running mate to congratulate him.
