Once again, the timeline of Kevin Durant’s decision to leave the OKC Thunder for the Golden State Warriors has been muddied.
According to NBC Sports’ Dan Feldman, it’s possible that Durant made his decision in May of 2016, well before free agency opened. And it’s even more possible that he officially told his agent, Rich Kleiman, about his decision to go to the Warriors on the night of OKC’s devastating game seven loss to Golden State in the playoffs that year.
Now, none of this is fully confirmed. Although this came directly from Durant and Kleiman at Bloomberg’s Players Technology Summit, the timelines they were presenting left huge holes.
