NBA Rumors: Free Agency Options For Kevin Durant, Including Golden State Warriors
NBA rumors have been swirling around Kevin Durant. The Oklahoma City Thunder superstar is set to become a free agent at the end of the season. There is a strong belief that if the Thunder do not win an NBA Championship this season, he could very well be on the way out to find a team that can contend for a title. According to Sports Illustrated, many teams in the National Basketball Association will be making Durant their number one target during free agency.
Signing a talent like Kevin Durant will help turn around a franchise right away or potentially make a team a legitimate title contender. If the former MVP does decide to leave the Oklahoma City Thunder, he will be targeting a team that will help him win an NBA Championship. There are other reasons Durant would leave Oklahoma City. Signing with a bigger market team will get Durant more exposure, popularity, and more advertisement.

The Golden State Warriors signing Kevin Durant might sound a little crazy, but for Durant, it will give him the best chance to win an NBA Championship. The Warriors this season have done the unthinkable by tying the Chicago Bulls for the most wins in the National Basketball Association. The addition of Durant will make Golden State the most star-studded team in the NBA.

Earlier this season, the Washington Wizards expressed interest in Kevin Durant. The former MVP might be looking to come back home this upcoming summer. To get Durant’s interest, the Wizards could sign his former coach Scott Brooks. John Wall and Bradley Beal have formed one of the best back court duos in the NBA. The addition of Durant would propel Washington to be one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference.
