The Kevin Durant to the Knicks rumors started flying before the season and have reached a fever pitch since the trade of Kristaps Porzingis freed two max slots for New York for the summer of 2019.
As Durant ducks the media in Golden State and league executives whisper that they expect him to bolt for the Knicks, is there another sign that KD could be Big-Apple-bound?
A Kevin Durant Charity Foundation (KDCF) billboard is up on East 11th street in Manhattan...

Before fans get too excited, it should be noted that the billboard is apparently not brand new.
The KDCF, which in part works to build or renovate basketball courts in underserved communities in the United States and internationally, has built or renovated courts in Oklahoma City (where Durant spent the bulk of his career), China, Berlin, Germany, India, Taiwan, Austin, Seattle (where Durant began his career), New York, Maryland and Washington, DC (both close to Durant's hometown), and three cities in California (close to where Durant currently plays) since 2015.
