The NBA free agency is in full swing with several teams, especially those from the bottom, becoming more desperate to land a quality player.

Lost in the frenzy are other top players who are on the injured list. There is not much Kevin Durant news around. One because he is still in rehabilitation for his injured foot, and two because he won't be a free agent until next year.

Kevin Durant rarely make public appearance but he was spotted at the Orlando Summer League this week. Of course, with all the free agency craze and him potentially becoming the main target for next year, he was instantly asked bout his future.

Durant still has one year left in his contract with Oklahoma City Thunder. For many experts, seeing move out of OKC is not impossible.

When asked if he is already thinking about free agency, Kevin Durant said he is more focused on his rehab adding he is excited about new coach Billy Donovan.

"No I haven't thought about it. I hear it all the time but I really am just focusing on rehab," Durant told ESPN's Royce Young. "I can't get there unless I take care of today. That's the way I look at it even though I hear it from every side, thinking past to next summer. But I'm not even trying to focus on that. I'm excited about our team, our new coaches and just trying to get back right."

When asked when he could possibly return, Kevin Durant said he is still on track on his August target.

"Looking like it. We're doing X-rays every two weeks and it's looking good. So I'm excited to get back, man. There's no pain and looking forward to getting back."
