Kevin Durant expects Nets’ Big 3 to make ‘right decision’ with contract decisions looming
NY Post
Kevin Durant is busy aiming for his third Olympic gold in Tokyo. But beginning Monday, he can officially start talking with the Nets about his future in Brooklyn, signing a long-term contract extension.
Nets general manager Sean Marks has every intention of extending all of the Big Three this summer, with free agency officially tipping off Monday at 6 p.m. The question now is, are those three stars – Durant, James Harden and Kyrie Irving – all on the same page about staying in Brooklyn for the long haul? And with all three of them max players and money not the big factor, what goes into the decision? “(You) like being in that environment, first of all. You enjoy playing the game, that’s the most important thing. I think we all three enjoy playing with each other,” Durant said when asked by the Post after Team USA practice on Tuesday morning. “But that’s a personal thing, and guys are different. I’m sure when the time is right I’m sure we’ll all make the right decision for ourselves.”More Related News
