Breaking Down Kevin Durant's Best Options in 2016 NBA Free Agency / Kevin Durant is a free agent this summer. Did you know that? It's OK if you didn't. It's not like anyone is talking about it or anything. - Except everyone is talking about it. Every week there's another rumor. Before every marquee matchup there's another rumor. Rumors, rumors, rumors. - Should Durant re-sign with the Oklahom City Thunder? Are any of the Boston Celtics, Los Angeles Lakers, New York Knicks, Toronto Raptors and Washington Wizards viable threats to whisk him off his feet? Can the Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs be considered favorites to land him if he leaves Oklahoma City? Should Golden State or San Antonio even want to sign him? And, finally, where should Durant ultimately take his talents? - Keep it right here with the Hardwood Knocks crew as they tackle these question head on. As always, thanks for listening.
