Why trading Kevin Durant may not be that easy

Brandon King

Kevin Durant’s trade request not set free agency on its ear , but that of the enitre NBA as well. Players of Durant’s caliber aren’t on the market that often so the Nets were Miley fielding calls from every team in the league, whether they believed they had a legitimate shot at acquiring him or not.

Kevin Durant officially debuts KD 15 in play-in game
