Durant, 27, has spent all nine years of his NBA career with the Thunder and has reportedly been leaning toward re-signing with Oklahoma City, though a source told the Oklahoman on Sunday that the Heat and the Warriors have the best chance of changing his mind.
Durant is a seven-time All Star and one-time NBA MVP, and he has averaged 27.4 points per game over his professional career.
