Golden State Warriors general manager Bob Myers has reportedly been staying in contact with Kevin Durant and his business partner Rich Kleiman since the season ended, according to Brian Windhorst and Ramona Shelburne of ESPN.

The Warriors can offer Durant a five-year, $221 million supermax contract this summer. KD is expected to miss the entire 2019-20 season recovering from the right Achilles tear he suffered in Game 5 of the 2019 NBA Finals against the Toronto Raptors.

The fact that Myers, Durant and Kleiman have been talking pretty much puts an end to the rumors that KD is upset with the Warriors following his Achilles injury.
