Reports suggest that teams are interested in revisiting a potential trade for Kevin Durant
The Nets are in trouble, there can be no denying that. The sheer amount of problems surrounding them is ridiculous.
So much so, that many believe this is the perfect opportunity for Kevin Durant to find a way out. According to ESPN reporter, Zach Lowe, teams are already showing interest in re-engaging in trade talks for the Slim Reaper.
Lowe explained on his podcast that while he does not expect a deal to happen overnight, he does believe teams are looking into the possibilities.
Durant, on one hand, seems to be purely focused on basketball. However, on the other hand, he may be keeping an eye on the rumor mill as well.
KD was keen on being traded to several teams including the Suns and the Heat
It is important to remember that KD had initially requested a trade in the off-season, with a list of teams he was interested in being traded to. Primary among them were the Phoenix Suns and the Miami Heat.
With the trade deadline approaching at a snail’s pace, it will be interesting to see how things unfold. Especially if things remain dicey in Brooklyn.
