Famous reporter: Durant s past experience is too complicated, which has led to many teams not willing to renew his contract this summer

The source comes from Suns reporter John Gambadoro. Kevin Durant has recently begun to convey information to people close to him. The general content is: this summer, the team he is most likely to join is the Spurs.

Many NBA industry insiders expressed their discomfort because Durant's current strength is far from being "a slutty life". For teams like the Spurs that are in the reconstruction period, once Durant officially joins, it means that it will be difficult for him to reach the NBA championship again in a short period of time.

In the relevant reports of famous reporter Jake Fischer, it was learned that there are two main reasons why Durant "has a special liking" for the Spurs.

First, the Spurs' playing environment is relatively stable. Paul is closer and Gasol is farther away. Many veterans like to join a stable team like the Spurs in their late years of their careers.

Second, because Durant's past experience is too complicated (since he left the Thunder, he has been with the Warriors, Nets, and Suns), many teams are unwilling to renew his contract this summer, but the Spurs are an exception.

It is reported that in order to attract big-name stars, the Spurs are willing to offer a reasonable contract renewal this summer. But one thing to note is that all signs indicate that the Spurs have regarded Antetokounmpo as the first target of the "Star Plan". As for the 36-year-old Durant, it is likely to be just an alternative to the Spurs.
