You all have to look at the bigger picture, remember Danny's playing chess here.
James Young and Kevin Durant have the same agent (Rich Kleiman).
While RJ Hunter shares an agent (Mark Bartelstein) with Lester Hudson (waived by Danny), David Lee (waived by Danny), Dahntay Jones (waived by Danny), Will Bynum (waived by Danny), Greg Stiemsma (let walk by Danny), and E'Twaun Moore (traded away by Danny). Bartelstein also represents Gordon Hayward.
I think it's clear, all eggs out of the sign-Gordon-Hayward-in-2017 bucket and back in the sign-Kevin-Durant-when-he-opts-out-in-2017 bucket. Also Danny apparently has some kind of strange vendetta against Barelstein with none of his clients making it past a full season with the C's! Or of course the less plausible scenario, they just liked James Young better
