Michael Beasley chooses Knicks over Kevin Durant reunion

DENVER — Thanks for the sentiment Kevin Durant, but Michael Beasley seems like he would rather stick with the Knicks next season than bolt to the Warriors’ juggernaut.

Kevin Durant talked a lot about his D.C. buddy Beasley in his postgame press conference Tuesday night after the Knicks’ 123-112 loss at Golden State, lavishing plaudits at his skill level and agreeing with his friend’s controversial preseason assessment he “matches up talent-wise” to LeBron James and Durant.

But KD saved his bombshell nugget for the San Jose Mercury News, saying how “amazing’’ it would be to play with Beasley next season on the Warriors, who won’t have cap space but will wield the $5.
