Durant will do what's best for him as 2016 free agent

In his most extensive public comments about his highly-anticipated free agency, Kevin Durant addressed rampant speculation that he will soon leave Oklahoma City for his native Washington.

Durant made it unequivocally clear that he will put himself first when choosing which team he will continue his career with when his contract expires at the end of the 2015-2016 season.

“I’m going to do what’s best for me,” Durant told reporters in Las Vegas, where he was practicing with the U.S. Men’s National Team in preparation for next month’s FIBA World Cup. “It’s hard to talk about that right now when I’ve got two years left in Oklahoma City."
