The Brooklyn Nets have received a trade request from Kevin Durant, and the Miami Heat as well as the Phoenix Suns are looking to get him.
Kevin Durant has opted to submit a trade request to the Brooklyn Nets, which is an unexpected turn of events. This came after Kyrie Irving chose to enter the final year of his deal with the Brooklyn Nets a few days prior.
When it was anticipated that Kyrie Irving would be departing the team, the future of Durant was in doubt, but things became clearer when Irving would be returning to Brooklyn. The entire NBA community has been startled by KD’s trade request. It will be intriguing to watch where Durant ends up because nearly every team will be interested in signing him.
In order to take home a championship, Kevin Durant is probably going to sign with a strong squad. As a result, we are about to see the largest deal in NBA history. Numerous key players might switch teams so that their team can acquire KD.
Currently, the Miami Heat and the Phoenix Suns are leading the race to get Durant. KD has listed them as his preferred destinations, and if he ends up on any of those two teams, he can straight away win the championship next season.
2019 saw Kevin Durant sign with the Brooklyn Nets, where he has won just one playoff series in his short time there. He arrived here with high hopes, but a number of unforeseen events have prevented things from going as planned thus far.
KD and Kyrie will be leaving the Nets without achieving anything. When they added James Harden last season, everyone believed that this Brooklyn team might be the greatest team ever. However, it has ended up as the worst experiment ever, and the Brooklyn Nets will suffer the consequences of it for years to come.
