As free agency nears for Oklahoma City Thunder's Kevin Durant, numerous teams are reportedly wooing the star player to join their roster but one team stands out - the New York Knicks. 

Sports writer Frank Isola discussed in his article on the New York Daily News that Durant is now being offered by various teams in the NBA, specifically the Knicks. Isola noted that a person close to Durant revealed that he wants to work with Carmelo Anthony.

"No question about it. Kevin loves Carmelo (Anthony). It could work in New York. But never rule out the Thunder," the source was quoted by Isola as saying.

A similar Yahoo Sports report discussed that if Durant chooses the Knicks as his next team, it will be able to utilize his talent and improve their terrible run this season.

"Durant will be the best player on the market when he hits free agency in two summers, and every team with enough cap space to offer him a maximum salaried contract will be foaming at the mouth to do so," the Yahoo Sports report added.

Aside from the Knicks, Yahoo Sports said Durant could consider joining the Washington Wizards since it has done "pretty damn good" in the previous NBA seasons. The Los Angeles Lakers and the Dallas Mavericks are the other teams that could probably land Durant once free agency comes, the report continued.

Durant, however, is expected to consider every possible angle in his free agency to be able to get the most out of the new chapter in his career. 

Yahoo Sports' Dan Devine, raised another valid point, though: 

"While we're not doubting how plugged in Isola is to the Knicks' thinking, this is a lone source close to Durant saying 'could' without considering the likelihood of Durant having a raft of higher-class options with more competitive track records from which to choose in free agency ... including, lest we forget, staying in Oklahoma City, where he can sign for an additional year with higher annual pay raises on his max deal. It should, y'know, be treated as such, with an appropriate amount of salt shaken out in its consideration."

Moreover, here's another thing to consider. Durant adores Oklahoma.

"I love playing for Oklahoma City, man. There's just a certain level of pride that I have when I play with that Oklahoma City on my chest. That's the only thing I focus on. Everybody knows I represent where I come from, no matter where I play at, no matter what arena. But I just focus on playing with Oklahoma City. It feels like home to me now. So that's where I am," Durant said, as quoted by NBA.com's David Aldridge.
