Kevin Durant will become a free agent after declining a $31.5 million player option to stay with the Golden State Warriors in 2019-20, per ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. Durant can still re-sign with the Warriors, but this decision signals to the basketball world that one of the most talented players alive still expects to receive a more lucrative deal in free agency despite tearing his right Achilles tendon in the Finals. The Warriors and New York Knicks are expected to offer Durant a full max contract when free agency opens at 6 p.m. ET on June 30, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
