With stars such as LeBron James and Stephen Curry battling for West play-in position, the final month of the season comes with massive stakes.
In an interview with Yahoo! Sports, Warriors forward Kevin Durant disputed that his recent confrontation with teammate Draymond Green would impact his decision on whether to re-sign with Golden State.
Warriors forward Kevin Durant was fined $25,000 by the NBA on Tuesday for directing inappropriate language toward a fan during a recent game in Dallas.
Kevin Durant and Draymond Green, who usually work to keep each other's emotions in check, exchanged heated words at the end of regulation in an overtime loss to the Clippers. "Things happen like that in sports," Warriors guard Shaun Livingston insisted.
With two titles and two Finals MVPs, what else could Kevin Durant want? The Warriors -- like the Thunder before -- begin a season-long wait for the answer.
