Kevin Durant doesn't want to talk about free agency much, but he and those around him keep fanning the flames that he'll leave the Warriors after this season -- potentially for the Knicks.

On Wednesday morning, Durant's brother commented on Instagram about "filling the hand up before we get outta here" -- an apparent reference to Durant winning one more title with the Warriors before opting out of his contract.

The comment from Durant's brother came a day after Durant liked and then un-liked an Instagram post about Frank Ntilikina playing forward for the Knicks on Opening Night.

Earlier on Tuesday, NBA Insider Zach Lowe predicted that Durant will sign with the Knicks this summer.

The 30-year-old Durant is expected to opt out of his deal this summer and become a free agent, and the Knicks are expected to have the salary cap space needed to sign him or one of the other marquee free agents.

In an effort to clear salary space for the summer of 2019, the Knicks recently used the stretch provision on Joakim Noah. They also put off a potential Kristaps Porzingis extension in order to have even more salary cap space.
