NBA Rumors: the star of Brooklyn Nets Kevin Durant He asked a few weeks ago to be transferred, but it does not seem that there is any team in the league capable of offering a sufficient lot to the New Yorkers in exchange for one of the best scorers in history who still has a four-year contract with his current team. According to Adrian Wojnarowski on ESPN, one of the last teams to be interested in acquiring KD is the current NBA finalist Boston Celtics. The key for this movement to happen is that those in Massachusetts were willing to include Jaylen Brown in the agreement. In addition to the Celtics, we know that the Miami Heat, Phoenix Suns and Toronto Raptors have all tried unsuccessfully to acquire the player.
To date, no team has reached the significant threshold the Nets have set for trading one of the most talented players in the league, sources said. The Nets’ stance on a potential trade has remained largely unchanged: They want a massive return that potentially includes multiple unprotected first-round picks, pick trades and a few stars, sources said.
Factor Stevens
Brad Stevens is slowly transforming the Celtics off the bench. It can be painful trying to part with Jaylen Brown, but pairing Durant with Jayson Tatum is the fastest way to get the ring. Putting two generations of talent together would automatically make them favorites to get back into the Finals next season.
