The Golden State Warriors are willing to pay Kevin Durant "whatever he wants" as the forward prepares to open negotiations over a new contract. Last week, Durant ended speculation over his future as he revealed he intends to prolong his stay in the Bay Area after winning two NBA titles in his first two seasons with Golden State. A year ago, the nine-time All Star signed a $51 million two-year deal which included an opt-out clause, which will allow him to become an unrestricted free agent this summer and restructure his deal with the reigning NBA champions.
