尽管他说他不会称自己为“先驱”，但他帮助将大麻从违禁物质名单中删除。至少从2020年起，这位前锋就一直在倡导这一点，并投资了多家大麻相关公司
据今年早些时候报道，这已成为NBA和NBPA之间最新的集体谈判协议
“我很喜欢这个工厂，”杜兰特本周在洛杉矶举行的CNBC和Boardroom首届游戏计划体育商业会议上说。“就这么简单。”
大麻已从NBA的禁毒测试项目中删除，尽管这一变化始于2019-20赛季，当时联盟表示不会随机对球员进行药物测试。这一决定是在新冠肺炎疫情爆发后，NBA在奥兰多的泡沫中恢复比赛时做出的
周二，杜兰特讨论了他与NBA主席亚当·西尔弗的会面

“嗯，当我走进来的时候，他闻到了，”杜兰特说。“所以我真的不需要说太多，你知道我在说什么吗？他有点明白这是怎么回事……这是NBA，伙计……老实说，每个人都这么做。这就像葡萄酒一样。”

Kevin Durant says Adam Silver 'smelled it' when he walked into meeting that got NBA marijuana testing axed
原文：
Although he said he wouldn't call himself a "pioneer," Kevin Durant helped get marijuana taken off the NBA banned substance list. The Phoenix Suns forward had been advocating for this since at least 2020 and has invested in multiple cannabis-related companies.
This has now made it into the latest Collective Bargaining Agreement between the NBA and the NBPA, as reported by Shams Charania earlier this year.
"I just enjoy the plant," Durant said during the CNBC and Boardroom's inaugural Game Plan sports business conference in Los Angeles this week. "It's as simple as that."
Marijuana has been removed from the NBA's anti-drug testing program, although the change started during the 2019-20 season when the league said they would not be testing players randomly for the substance. That decision was made when the NBA resumed play in a bubble in Orlando after a break caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
On Tuesday, Durant discussed his meeting with NBA Commisioner Adam Silver.
"I actually called him and advocated for him to take marijuana off the banned substance list," he said. "I just felt like it was becoming a thing around the country, around the world, that the stigma behind it wasn't as negative as it was before."

— CNBC Events July 26, 2023Durant said marijuana doesn't affect players in a negative way, and that Silver agreed with him. The two-time NBA Finals MVP said it wasn't difficult to start that conversation, because Silver pretty much already smelled what was coming.
"Well, he smelled it when I walked in," Durant said. "So I didn't really have to say much, you know what I'm saying? He kind of understood where this was going...It's the NBA, man... everybody does it, to be honest. It's like wine at this point."
