Durant and Irving swerved Knicks’ ‘toxic situation’ - Oakley

The New York Knicks missed out on top free agents like Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving due to a "toxic situation" at the franchise, according to Charles Oakley. Durant announced on Sunday he has decided to leave the Golden State Warriors for the Brooklyn Nets, where Irving is set to land after two seasons with the Boston Celtics. Former Knicks star Oakley suggested the organisation's culture is the reason for their failure to sign top free agents this offseason.
