Durant to be given a lengthy deal soon, club says

Oakland, California: Warriors general manager Bob Myers expects swift negotiations to re-sign two-time reigning NBA Finals MVP Kevin Durant and coach Steve Kerr. Durant could sign for as long as four years and about $160 million (Dh588.48 million), and Myers is prepared to give him “whatever he wants.”

Myers says: “I’d love to have him 10 years. He’s earned the right to sign whatever deal he wants… That shouldn’t be a long negotiation.”

Kerr has one year remaining on his original five-year contract, so he would receive a multi-year extension — and Kerr wants to coach Golden State for the long haul, perhaps for another decade if he can.
