Does Nike know something we don't know?
The company's latest shirt might be hinting at Kevin Durant's free-agency decision this summer, and it could come as a surprise to Warriors fan. The shirt lists the cities that have been home to Durant's team throughout his life, and the last city after Oakland on the shirt is San Francisco.
Nike has this @KDTrey5 shirt on the site that has all the Teams/Cities KD has played for. The last 2 are Oakland & San Francisco. GSW last season in Oakland is this season. Next season they are in SF. Did @Nike confirm KD back to Warriors? #NBAFinals #Warriors #NBA pic.twitter.com/SsdX2iTlKd — Audel Del Toro (@AudelDelToro) June 2, 2019
The Warriors are moving from Oakland to San Francisco starting next season with the opening of the Chase Center. The star forward, who will be a free agent later this month, toured Golden State's future home and was blown away.

"I can see a lot of points being scored here," Durant said during the tour.

Will his points at the Chase Center be scored as a Warrior or as an opponent is the big question. The consensus thinking is that Durant will find a new home this offseason, with many outlets connecting him to the New York Knicks.

If Nike already knows the answer, this summer can be even more chaotic than expected.
