Smoke bombs are cracked in the stands, although the meeting takes place in a closed room. Agricultural bombs with super-powerful detonations shake the walls and startle everyone. Kevin Durant, the Brooklyn Nets superstar, was present in the stands to see his great friend, Monaco point guard Mike James. The American mentioned “the apocalypse” on Twitter.
