Kevin Durant team first game of 2019-20 regular season Brooklyn Nets -150 (2/3) New York Knicks +150 (3/2) Golden State Warriors 4/1 (4/1)
Durant invited teams for more formal presentations as a free agent in 2016, but he and Kleiman's level of knowledge on the teams, owners, executives and roster offerings suggest a less formal face-to-face process may be necessary this time. Durant and Kleiman have been in New York since the All-NBA star's surgery to repair a torn Achilles, and plan to communicate with the teams from there, sources said.
Durant declined his $31.5 million player option to become an unrestricted free agent. The Warriors are planning to offer him a 5-year, $221 million max contract; the Clippers, Knicks and Nets can offer him a four-year, $164 million deal.
