The All-Star shooting tandem made it clear during a meeting last weekend that he would be a ideal fit with the Warriors.

“When I met these guys, I felt as comfortable as I’ve ever felt”. “Obviously, it’s tough”, Durant said.

Bogut, 31, helped the Warriors capture their first NBA title in 40 years in 2015 and sparked a run to a record 73 regular-season victories this past season, when Golden State fell one game shy of defending their title, losing to Cleveland in the NBA Finals after Bogut suffered a series-ending left knee injury in game five.

“I haven’t made the decision yet, but he might start”, NBA Coach of the Year Steve Kerr joked, sitting next to a smiling Durant. There’s no shortcuts. We’ve still got 82 games to play. “You can’t do any better than adding KD to the current crew”. They shared a big hug before Thursday’s festivities. Indeed, players like James and Durant have been signing short-term deals with the specific intent of being free agents next summer and cashing in on the expanded salary cap.

Originally selected by the Seattle SuperSonics with the second overall pick in the first round of the 2007 NBA Draft, Durant captured Rookie of the Year honors in Seattle in 2007-08 before the franchise relocated to Oklahoma City.

This startling redistribution of wealth is a product of a TV rights extension that will go into effect next season, under which ESPN and Turner (which carries games on TNT) are paying the league $24 billion over nine years – about a 180 percent increase over the last contract.

“I don’t want to go through that again, so I plan on being here”, Durant said. He’s here to win a championship.

“You never expect to get this much better”, general manager Bob Myers said. “But that just shows you what kind of character he has”. You’re not going to win any battles on Twitter, so I tell her, ‘Keep being you.
