The NBA’s second season is gearing up to begin Sunday and with some of the big names that will be available, could result in a power shift within the league. Apparently two of the most prominent names in the upcoming free agent bonanza, Kevin Durant and Kawhi Leonard have been discussing possible scenarios that could include the two playing together according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski and Ramona Shelburne.

“EYBL” Nike KD 12 could see a release this summer

Read MoreKD’s Achilles injuries proves why Kawhi Leonard was right last season
When Kevin Durant went down in Game 5 in a 6’11” heap it did not look good. While I have no rooting interest in these NBA Finals, I just want to see a good series that everyone plays well, makes it through healthy and is marred from controversy. It appears that I will not get all I asked for out of this series. Down 3-1, it was really no surprise that Kevin Durant played in Game 5, however seeing him go down brings up a lot of questions, the most…
Read MoreKevin Durant cleared to practice, could return for Game 5
With the Golden State Warriors staring at their season’s mortality down 3-1 in the NBA Finals, its expected that all stops would be pulled out to keep their season alive.

Read MoreKevin Durant: Still not ready
On the SportsCenter after Game 4 of the NBA Finals ESPN’s Brian Windhorst said that Kevin Durant’s “body isn’t ready” and there’s “frustration all around” that Durant is still unable to play. He attempted to engage in a workout Thursday but according to Jalen Rose, speaking on NBA Countdown, “it didn’t go well on any level.” With their quest for a three-peat on life support, after losing Game 4 105-92, having Durant in the lineup is more needed than ever. However even by some miracle KD is able to get…

Sunday Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr told reporters that is it possible that Kevin Durant could return after participating in just one practice. Durant has been out since suffering a calf strain in the second half of Game 5 of the conference semifinals against the Houston Rockets. It’s feasible. But again, it’s really a day-to-day thing,” Kerr said ahead of the Warriors’ Game 2 matchup against the Toronto Raptors. “If we had a crystal ball we would have known a long time ago what we were dealing with. It’s…
