Famously nicknamed “The Logo” West carries a significant amount of weight. He’s part of the braintrust for several seasons now. He also has lured stars in free agency before.

All of Durant’s meetings are over. A decision could come as soon as Sunday evening, but more like on Monday. Some team is going to get quite the gift on the Fourth of July.
