NBA Free Agency has arrived and just about every team in basketball was trying to get a meeting set up with superstar forward Kevin Durant. Unfortunately, only a select handful of teams will get their chance to pitch the superstar forward on coming to their team.

Durant is just about a perfect fit no matter where he ends up and every team is going to offer him the money he wants. It’s likely he’ll take a one-year deal so that he can make even more money next year, which could make the Oklahoma City Thunder the favorites.

While some think that Durant will end up staying in Oklahoma City, it’s going to be hard for him to say no to the teams that are going to be going after him in free agency. Any team that adds him would become an instant championship contender if he joins their roster and potentially the favorites to win the Larry O’Brien Trophy.

With the richest prize in free agency set to pick his next team, let’s take a look at the five best fits for his services in free agency.
