Kevin Durant talks up Knicks’ potential with free agency looming

OAKLAND — Kevin Durant talked a lot about the Knicks on Tuesday but not about joining the Knicks. The Warriors 6-11 superstar all but admitted he doesn’t want to say anything that he might regret.

At the morning shootaround at the Warriors’ Oakland practice complex ahead of facing the Knicks, Durant said rookie Kevin Knox has “a bright future,” confirmed his alliance with rookie Allonzo Trier, said the Knicks are a young team starting “to figure it out” and hopes to see Kristaps Porzingis make a commanding return.

Durant was the first one to brand Porzingis “The Unicorn” back in the Latvian’s rookie season.
