Durant has been told to snub joining LeBron James

Kevin Durant has been told to join the New York Knicks, instead of joining LeBron James at the Los Angeles Lakers. According to former NFL star Cris Carter, Kristaps Porzingis is the perfect playing partner for Durant. "It would be nice to see him with LeBron," Carter said on First Things First. “But I really want to see him in New York City. I want to see him with a franchise. I believe it will be exciting to see. I believe him and Kristaps [Porzingis] will be a special combination. I believe they can grow each other's game because it's very, very rare to have guys that type of body type where their game is very, very similar."
