NaVorro Bowman, the former All-Pro 49ers linebacker and Kevin Durant’s childhood friend from the D.C. area, told The Post his buddy “needs’’ the Knicks.
Bowman, who played youth basketball with Durant starting in middle school, added the Warriors star already has “an idea’’ about a destination for next season and hinted the Knicks are the favorite.
Bowman played seven full seasons for San Francisco before splitting his last season between the 49ers and Raiders. He has maintained his friendship with Durant, a free agent July 1.
Asked if the Knicks were a good fit, Bowman went wild.
