OAKLAND, Calif. — In the wake of the Oklahoma City Thunder’s Game 7 loss in the Western Conference finals, pending free-agent superstar Kevin Durant claimed he had yet to begin pondering his decision this summer.

“I mean, we just lost like 30 minutes ago, so I haven’t even thought about it,” Durant said during his postgame news conference after OKC’s 96-88 loss to the Golden State Warriors on Monday night. “I’m just embracing my teammates and just reflecting on the season. I’ll think about that stuff, I don’t know when. But we just lost an hour ago, 30 minutes ago, so I don’t know.”

Durant, 27, a seven-time All-Star who has spent his entire nine-year career with the same organization, will be one of the most highly sought after free agents in NBA history.

With the salary cap soaring, the majority of the league will be in position to offer Durant a maximum contract with a starting salary of $25.9 million, with the Warriors and San Antonio Spurs among his many potential suitors.
