OAKLAND — Usually, the marketplace and a team’s luxury cap determines the length and amount of a player’s deal. But for Warriors forward Kevin Durant, Warriors general manager Bob Myers will basically ask Durant both to write his terms and then sign on the dotted line.

“Whatever he wants,” Myers said, laughing. “Sometimes you don’t negotiate.”

Durant will opt out of his player option to become an unrestricted free agent on July 1. But he and his business partner, Rich Kleiman, have repeatedly said he will re-sign with the Warriors after winning two NBA championships and two Finals MVPs since joining the team two years ago.
