On the heels of Kevin Durant declining his $31.5 million player option for 2019-20 on Wednesday to become a free agent, the Golden State Warriors are reportedly thinking of ways to avoid losing him for nothing.
Appearing Thursday on ESPN's Get Up!, NBA insider Brian Windhorst reported that Golden State would be open to a sign-and-trade involving KD:
"My sense is that the Warriors are in the scramble mode to do anything that they can to either keep Kevin or not lose him for nothing. The last thing that the Warriors want is for him to just go sign with the Nets or sign with the Knicks.
