The Oakland Athletics had some fun at the expense of fans in the city who might be nervous that Kevin Durant will leave the Golden State Warriors this summer.

After slugger Khris Davis signed a two-year extension with the A's on Thursday, the team sent out this tweet with a tongue-in-cheek banner attached:

The story doesn't end there. The Athletics also took out a full-page ad in Friday's edition of the San Francisco Chronicle with the same "KD commits to Oakland" banner.

Durant has led the Warriors to back-to-back NBA titles with a strong chance for a third one this summer, but his future with the franchise has been a hot topic of conversation.

The Athletic's Frank Isola reported earlier this month that Durant could team up with Kyrie Irving on the New York Knicks.

Fortunately for Oakland, there's more than one quality KD in the city for fans to cheer for.
