#2. Golden State confident of Durant stay
Kevin Durant signed a one-year contract extension with the Warriors last summer, although ever since busting up with Draymond Green during the early stages of the season, KD has been linked with a summer departure.
•
Speaking on the superstar's future, Golden State owner and CEO Joe Lacob told The Athletic that he was confident in the Warriors' ability to convince Durant to stay:
Look, we can pay him the most money. We have a great team. We have great coaching. We have great fans. I don’t think anyone can match us, when you take everything into consideration if that’s the way you’re thinking about it. And he has a chance to win. I don’t know that you get this kind of opportunity very often. So I would hope that he thinks that and accepts that and decides he wants to stay.
Durant joined Golden State back in 2016, and he has since helped the team to back-to-back championships -- being named Finals MVP on both occasions.
